There are some characters that care so much about their clothing/a particular item that they will pull out extras if necessary. This generally occurs at the most unlikely times. Spare glasses appear from nowhere in the middle of a fight or uniforms/outfits are replaced on the fly. ''[[MidBattleTeaBreak Fights will even pause for this to occur]].''

It's certainly normal to have spare glasses, but seven pairs of her glasses end up shattering, far more than the number of glasses most people carry around with them. Or generally own at a time.
