Wearing boot cut jeans can help balance curvy hips, so they're most appropriate for short women who have triangle or hourglass shaped figures. If you're going to wear boot cut jeans, select those with a slight boot cut, rather than fuller bell bottom types, which are very wide at the hem. Too much width will detract from the long, lean line that short women need to establish in order to look taller.

These petite boot cut jeans from Gap (Buy Direct) feature a dark rinse, a slight boot cut, and a 29" inseam.
