Inspired by Becky's post about the BR Sloan fit trousers, I am embarking on a search for dark-wash, low-rise bootcuts. I'd like to invest in a premium pair, ideally through NAS so that I don't have to pay for hemming. Any style or brand recommendations for a LOW rise (7-7.5", maybe 8") pair?

Details: I have a butt and athletic thighs, but narrow hips. I'm petite with a short, undefined waist and a regular-length torso, so I prefer to wear low-rise jeans that sit on my hips. I like AG skinnies and have been told that Paige is worth a try for less curvy types; my favorite pair of bootcuts is the Zelda fit from Express, but they are no longer making that fit in bootcut jeans, only skinnies.

Any recommendations for jeans that I should try? I have to order all Nordstrom items online and would prefer not to run up a huge, albeit temporary, credit card bill to try multiple styles and sizes.
