I too am high-waisted, and it does influence my clothing choices. I very rarely wear any outfit without including some sort of collared shirt. I find this visually elongates my torso and creates a seemingly better balance for my torso:leg ratio. I also think I look much better wearing a sweater than I do tucking in a dress shirt, again because of this high-waisted attribute.

As far as pants go, I avoid tapered pants because I find these make one's leg look longer, whereas more of a straight or boot-cut of pants seems to shorten one's legs.
