Bootcuts and flares are great if you have hips as they balance them out to give you a great silhouette. If you're narrower and don't have curvy hips then be aware they can sometimes swamp your body, making you look a bit out of proportion. Remember that you may want these jeans to wear with heels and be close to the ground, so it might be worth considering a pair which are slightly longer then your usual leg length.

Straight legged jeans are a lot more versatile than bootcuts and are a more flattering option if you don't have hips. Those with hips can still pull off the straight leg, as it's a very flattering cut. They can be a nice alternative to a skinny jean if you're not comfortable in this cut. When worn with heels they can make your legs look super long.

Skinnys can be very flattering and could work for any body shape as long as they are worn right. If you're slim then you won't have a problem looking great in skinny jeans. If you're a bit curvier, you might feel more comfortable with a longer top worn over your skinny jeans, and looks great with a nice pair of heels.
It's a great cut to tuck into boots too, so are very versatile. Do remember though that you might probably won't want these to be the same length as a pair of bootcut or flares you might buy, as you'll want them to stop at your ankle.

This cut is great for those who are tall and slim and can be pulled off really well for those with a flat stomach. They do have a tendency to make shorter, curvier people appear shorter, so in this instance a slim fit or bootcut could be ideal.
– High/Mid rise jeans –
Low rise jeans are very flattering on a smaller frame, they can give you a great silhouette and can go with any top. They do have the potential to show a 'muffin top' so try not to buy a size which might be a bit too tight.
