Squat and pull ups. Big thighs, big shoulders, and a big set of lats makes you look like you got a small waist.

Aside from all the basics, which ARE a necessity, side laterals and stiff arm pulldowns are fantastic for targeting the exact areas that will make you appear far wider up top...lateral deltoids and upper lat/teres minor.

Go wide on all your back exercise grips. Focus on middle deltoids too.

Peace
