i'm so excited about these jeans.ne of the difficult things that i run up against is finding jeans that look great on my different makeover candidates' body types. now, this frustration occurs for all of us, um, because women come in all shapes and sizes, right? and i think the designers think that we're all supermodels, because you see those really skinny jeans out there? well, we're real women and we have real curves. >> i try and buy classy jeans but a little bit on the less expensive side, because i know i have to then go spend another 30, $40 getting the waist tapered, but these jeans fit me perfectly, and they're so affordable. it's like i'm getting a win/win situation:ow i've got jeans that fit me perfectly and i don't have to spend a whole lot of money on 'em, so i couldn't be happier with the price of these jeans. >> why would i go and spend hundreds of dollars on these brand-name jeans that are not gonna look very good on me? these look amazing on me and are totally within my budget. >> curve control jeans a

jeans. all fallen victim to it-- the dreaded muffin top, the bulges, the infamous rear end cleavage, and let's not forget that awful flat-as-a-pancake derriere-- but whatever you want to call it, these are the reasons why we fear reaching for those jeans. >> the muffin top is so embarrassing. it's one of the most unflattering things, and i struggle with it all the time. >> it's embarrassing, this... i got these bulges here, loose material here, it's sagging in the butt, it... no shape whatsoever. >> there's a lot of times when i will be looking in my closet and i'll look at my jeans and go, "oh, i don't feel good in those," and i just won't wear 'em. >> announcer: it's so frustrating. jeans are a staple in every woman's closet, and why not? they're the only fashion item to never go out of style, but why is it so hard to find a pair to fit your body type? why does it always seem that high-quality fashion looks great but never fits great? >> hi, i'm julia parker, and i'm here to let you know a

>> certainly it does, jean. and one of the things we have to remember, in addition or association with this fire alarm is the fact that annie being the size that she is, we cannot rule out that she may have been placed into a container, if in fact this is a foul play-related situation. she's small enough that she could be wheeled out that way. >> what does it say to you, though, they just took dogs into this 120,000-feet -- foot facility and brought them out very quickly. they couldn't have combed the entire area over that time. >> absolutely not. but also keep in mind there are several different types of dogs. you have trarking dogs. you also have cadaver dogs. and if in fact it is foul play and she possibly has met some ill will-timed episode, the cadaver dogs would also be able to locate a body. so there are different kinds of dogs that could be used in this. >> isn't it true that tracking dogs the scent could be lost in time? and tuesday was the last time she was seen alive. >> absolutely. we're now talking

jean, the plummer, the plummer? rosy the plummer is back and she's down there in the washroom at yale's university -- yale university's research building and she, the plummer, finds evidence in a murder case? what happened to the police? >> reporter: well, it sounds like they had to have a plummer go to that lab room. that's right, nancy, the investigation continues in new haven. new haven police were back at the lab building. and a plum her to go in with them and including forensic technicians to find what they are not saying on the record as evidence, but employees at the lab building are telling the new haven register that it may be medical scrubs that were found shoved down and inside a drain in the wash basin area. >> well, jean casarez, i can guarantee you this, it's not just medical scrubs. those scrubs have got to have something on them, something incriminating on them. because why else would someone shove them down a drain? >> reporter: definitely. and, nancy, can medical scrubs even be shoved down a drain?

number two, what was your other question. >> jean? yes. >> we're showing everybody right now photos that we have obtained today of raymond clark from his high school yearbook. went up there to try to find the girl to find out about this pattern of violence and harassment of women. are there the shots that we obtained. i wanted to find out about that and i wanted to find out about these e-mails that went back and forth between the 90-pound victim, annie le, and this guy now charged with murder one. what do you know about those e-mails? >> reporter: it's being reported that these text messages or e-mails had maybe two different subject matters. one being that he who maintained the cages and the animals was upset at her, annie le, because she was leaving her cage in disorder or dirty or not in the condition that he wanted the cage left in. but i think even most importantly was it's being reported that there was a text message the morning of the day she went missing. asking her to meet with him at the lab. that they were going to meet tog

back with us, jean chatzky and elmo. welcome back. jean, i want to ask you this question.about budgeting. >> uh-huh. >> and it's really tough to get that idea across to people who are 3 1/2 years old. so how do you do that? >> the parents actually have to do the budgeting and most parents, as you well know, don't. most people don't. especially when money is tight, you really have to take a look what you have got coming in, what you have going out and where it's going so you can start making the right choices for your family about what the priorities are. >> elmo, you had a conversation with your mother about this, correct, about budgeting? >> yes. >> what did you learn? >> elmo said it's not what you need. so it's really important for elmo to understand that. elmo thought mommy put too many toys for him but it wasn't. it was okay. >> that wasn't the real problem, was it? >> no. >> it was something much bigger. well, want to involve kids in the process obviously and help them understand what you're doing. how do you get them motivated? >> you want to give them a chance to h

but the jeans are not cheap. they start at 159 bucks. but the most expensive ones, those with the lion's eyes, that's $579. now, forgive me, but to sell the jeans, you might want to use a supermodel rather than, you know, a normal looking person. but my sister pointed out that the jeans probably wouldn't wink on a model. you need a little junk in your trunk. meantime, we also have a marketing message where the sex sells a little too well. all right. pam anderson stars in the latest pita campaign in removing animal products like leather, furs, even wool. all part of pita's new cruelty doesn't fly campaign, meant to air on tv monitors in new york airports this week. there's also a couple you can see there, they're wearing nothing but a smile. and you get a good look at their back sideses, though we're not going to show you that. sorry. the fur started flying over this cnn network pulled the ad. too racy. they tell cnbc they're hoping to buy time on actual flights and air these spots as advertising. telling me, "we are willing to work with

[both laugh] i don't like the bra bulge, um, and that's not going away, because you can't suck that part of your body in, so... >> well... it actually is. >> really? >> but before we do that, we're gonna have sally measure you real quick for pre-measurements. >> oh... oh! oh... o.k., wow. >> julia: [laughs] we are going to get ready... >> you're not gonna say the number out loud though, are you? >> uh, unfortunately. >> uh-oh. uh-oh.

jean? >> probably not.e why we tell people you don't want to annuitize everything. it's okay to annuitize a chunk of your retirement money so you've got some sort of income, but you have to leave yourself with a cushion. my suggestion, call your state insurance commissioner and see if you can get anybody there on board to help you. also go back to the agent who sold you this annuity and see if you can get them on your side. chances are, though, these contracts are very, very difficult to break. and my fear is that you are stuck. >> wish we had better news for linda. next we're going to go to a phone call from diana potomac, montana. diane, good morning and what's your question? >> caller: good morning. i have a question regarding reallocating my investments. about 15 years ago my husband and i started investing. i was going moderate to aggressive. and he was going moderate to conservative. and i really haven't changed that strategy for the 15 years. and we haven't had to touch it, so we've lost some, but we
