TV presenter Jenny Buckley has hosted the shows Cois Farraige and Access Hollywood on Channel 6. We caught up with the chic presenter to get the low down on her style secrets.
Do you experiment with your look?
Yes, I suppose I do. There's a new designer called Jennifer Rothwell and I recently wore one of her creations to a black tie event, It was quite unconventional but it felt great to be a little bit different.
Who is your fashion icon or your greatest influence in matters of style?
Charlize Theron, for me she epitomises style and elegance. Her look is classic and timeless.
What is you essential beauty item that must be in your handbag?
That would have to be my pro palette concealer from Kohl (available from Brown Sugar). It's great for hiding dark circles and broken veins.
What is your favourite item of clothing that you've ever purchased?
I know I'm going to sound pathetic but my favourite item is my wedding dress.It's gas I still have it hanging up in my wardrobe not that I'm ever going to wear it again!
How important is fashion in the world of music/film industry?
I would say fashion is an essential element in the music/film industry. These artists are photographed constantly and they define the fashion of the seaon as we buy the mags to see who's wearing what.
How would you describe your style?
My style is definitely eclectic... I wear what suits my figure. My wardrobe contains everything from skinny jeans to ballgowns.
Who's your facourite designer? And your favourite high street store?
My favourite designer is Temperlay and Christian Labouton for shoes. Topshop and River Island are great for the essentials.
What is you favourite city to shop in and why?
New York is by far the best city to shop in. The last time I was there I got 5 pairs of shoes in Century 21 for 100 dollars! The discount stores are where it's all at. Bergdoff Goodman is outrageously expensive but it's an experience to just walk around, everything is so ornate. With the exhange
rate being so good at the moment, it really is a good time to head over.
What do you feel best wearing?
My jeans and flat shoes.
Whats the best style advice you have been given?
Buy good shoes and everything else falls into place. With regard to makeup, less is definitely more.
