Media coverage of Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin is taking a turn. Instead of focusing on her political choices people are now talking about her designer eyewear. Licensed Dispensing Optrician at Lange Eyecare Christian St. Clair says people are requesting the Sarah Palin frames nonstop. The Palin frames are actually called the 704 frames made by Italian manufacturer Kazuo Kawasaki. St. Clair says customers neither know nor care about who makes the frames, they just want the Sarah Palin glasses. But, the process for getting the frames may take a while since each pair is custom designed and ordered then sent to the manufacturer to be made. To be sure customers know what they're getting, St. Clair keeps a couple to show in the store. From shoes to eyewear, St. Clair says that it's a common trend for people to want the styles of those on TV.
