how to tone stomach and not get muscular (I know it sounds wierd...)?

So I am already skinny by 99% of people definition, but I still feel like there is too much fat on my stomach thighs and chest, that being said I dont want to lose weight... I am wondering what is the best way to lose that fat without trying to get muscular look, meaning I dont want to be a 6-pack style looking guy. I like how I look in clothes right now, but I still think I have too much fat when I take the shirt off.

So what parameters should I be looking at in changing my diet and exercise?

thanks!

    as far as eating goes just try not too eat fried foods. go each on white things. like white bread, white rice, white sugar, regular potatoes (as opposed to sweet) - and such. those things turn to sugar in your body.

    eat lots of protein and do ab exercises. you can't really get a 6 pack by just doing ab exercises. you'll just get toned. as long as you aren't doing them with heavy weights. you can use light weights if you want. and do a little bit of cardio, since you don't really want to lose weight.

    try a little bit of weight lifting, it'll help burn off that little bit of fat, and tone up everything else.
