Denim Day in Los Angeles

Today is Denim Day in Los Angeles and all the city officials made sure they wore denim to commemorate a serious topic of domestic abuse.
"We want everyone to know that Los Angeles is not a sanctuary for domestic abuse," Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said. "Coming from a family where there was domestic abuse, I can tell you what it does to a family. Men should respect women,."
And, while the topic was serious, it was also curious to note the different styles.
Some, like Councilwoman Wendy Greuel, looked comfortable in a faded pair of jeans.
Others, like Villaraigosa, had neatly pressed jeans and wore boots with it.
And, then there was Councilman Dennis Zine. He wore a matching denim jacket and jeans, prompting some to be thankful there isn't a leisure suit day at City Hall.
