TwitterWill Gov. Sarah Palin's glasses start an eyewear trend?
Keep your eyes on Sarah Palin.
And her eyewear.
The Alaska governor and Republican nominee for vice president has been in the limelight for only a few days. But, according to USA Today, she's already starting an eyewear trend.
She recently updated her eyewear and had new lightweight, titanium, rimless rectangular frames made for her by Home Optics, a retailer in Chugiak, Alaska.
The frames are designed by Kazuo Kawasaki, from the 704 series, in 34 gray. They start at $375 but can hit $700, depending on the lenses.
Home Optics owner Joy Leedham went to Palin's home in late December and fitted her in her kitchen. The governor had around 300 frames to consider and narrowed it down to five.
Her family helped pick the final style. The frames Palin picked "help her look fashion-forward," Leedham told USA Today.
The U.S. distributor of Kawasaki frames told USA Today that calls are already coming in from dealers who want to stock the exact shape and style Palin's wearing.
Let's hope pregnant teenage daughters aren't the next big craze Sarah inspires.

Great article...until the very end, which kills it.
You know, your article was interesting and until the last sentence. Was that really necessary? Why couldn't you have just talked about the glasses and the trend Gov. Palin may have started. Totally unnecessary shot; typical liberal crap!!
I think Sarah is amazing and I'm looking forward to her being our next VP. God bless her and her family and America!

Great glasses. Poor journalism with the final comment. Such trash!
The last sentence was a cheap shot - as always the media must write negatively. How were you a teenager ??? Did you listen to everything you were told? Or were you just lucky and didn't get caught so you can now be an older child armed with the cheap shots. As a media professional, you should be above this kind of press and your writings/comments should be banned.
These type of styles are manufactured by
LumiereEyewear.com
in many different colors and shapes

Fun article about the glasses, but last comment is totally out of line.It's a perfect example of the liberal media being negative and hateful as usual.
