You look like you've got a great body!

But since you asked, heres some tips.

Swimming a lot gives you broader shoulders. Try running every morning instead or you could play a sport. You can ride on a bike everyday, it's good for your butt and thighs. Seriously, cardio is your answer. Things like sit ups will only make you gain muscle which will be underneath the fat, making you look bigger then you already think you are.

Try drinking Green Tea a lot. It's a natural diuretic, so it should make you urinate frequently. This how it helps you lose weight because you have less water in your body. You will feel less bloated, but you are not burning any fat. It is only water weight you are losing. Not having enough fluids in your system can actually be bad for your metabolism, so you should really only use diuretics when you are trying to look slim for a short period of time (i.e. going swimming in a bikini or wearing a fitted dress). You can use diuretics for a few days before you need to "be slim", but you shouldn't do it too often because it will mess with your metabolism. If you drink green tea every day though you should make sure you drink a TON of water to make up for what you are losing.

Eliminate the fatty snacks and carbonated beverages (obviously), instead reach for fruit and even better would be raw vegetables, drink more water and natural unprocessed fruit juices. Pass on the milk, cheese, and red meat.

Don't starve yourself. Your body will get its energy by burning the muscle before the fat. Also, it's how you look not how much you weigh. Muscle weighs way more then fat.
