You cannot spot reduce fat outside of surgical procedures. That being said, your best bet is to reduce your overall bodyfat%. I recommend you start by checking the nutrition section of the forums and figure out your maintenance calories. Try to reduce this by 10 to 20% and take in the appropriate amount of macronutrients.
Add in an excercise/weightlifting program (yes, women should lift weights too) and you will make great progress.Training log: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=160275721&pagenumber=

The only thing you can do that can help spot reducing is working that muscle a little more if they are too weak.
Otherwise dont just eat 1320, unless that is your BMR + activity - 300-500 deficit. Otherwise you lose too much muscle and not enough fat which makes you look even worse!
Just read up on the info here, especially the stickies and you'll get there.working on it
