Canadian-born, radio presenter Jenny Huston has been on the national airwaves with RTE 2fm since 2003, having started her broadcasting career at her University radio station and then-legendary Dublin pirate, Phantom FM. She’s been nominated twice for Best Irish DJ at The Meteor Awards and she’s interviewed countless big name acts for 2fm. She has a keen yet subtle approach to her style. And we like it!

Classic with a rock edge

Eyelash tint

What item could you not live without?
Right now it would be my long, navy blue double-breasted wool cardigan

If your house was on fire and you’d only time to save one thing, what would it be?
My laptop with all my music and pictures. I would have fun replacing all the shoes and clothes.

New black winter coat to last me years.

Favourite highstreet designer collaboration?
COMME des GARCONS for H&M

Fashion on the web?
Uniqlo +J because we don’t have it, and they do great wool coats for very reasonable prices.
Net A Porter is great for drooling.

Worst fashion moment?
Off the shoulder Debs dress, age 17: I was twirled around on the dance floor all night. Later it was pointed out that my dress had ripped on both sides. Oops! Dress (sadly) designed for wearing with arms down…

What era of style would you most like see return to fashion?
I’m pretty happy right now. I like it whenever masculine meets feminine. Any twist on the classics. Tailoring; wool blazers, silk blouses, Breton t-shirts, leather boots and brogues.

Finally, what do you want your style to say about you?
I love clothes, but I am not the most adventurous dresser in the world, so I hope to always look clean and reasonably well groomed! I’m lucky that my job gives me the opportunity to dress up from time to time and to dress for different types of occasions.
