Bootcut jeans are a midlife style secret weapon—they create balance by drawing the eye down and elongating the leg (especially when they hit just below the ankle). They work especially well if: ✔️ You want to soften a wider midsection or hips ✔️ You’re curvy and want a clean, straight silhouette ✔️ You’re petite and want length without bulk The ones I’m wearing are mid-rise, with stretch but no sag—so they hug without clinging. I linked them brow (plus a few body-friendly options) for different heights + shapes in my LTK under “Denim That Fits.” LTKOver40 LTKMidsize LTKStyleTip
