Ireland AM’s latest presenter Anna Daly knows a thing or two about looking good, particularly when it comes to getting up at 4am for the show! As well as a hectic work schedule, Anna enjoys a busy social life so whether she’s dressing to help wake up the nation or dazzle on the dance floor she always manages to look fantastic. We caught up with the blond Dubliner to talk style…

Anna what five words best describe your style?
Casual, individual, colourful, classic and fun.

Favourite item in your wardrobe and why?
A Tommy Hilfiger beige suede coat dress – it’s hugely flattering and will never date.

Worst or best shopping experience?
Worst – In the midst of sale time on the highstreet. I hate it, the rails are filled with discounted junk and it’s never a bargain unless it’s beautiful or you need it. Best – I love wandering around markets or vintage stores in the hope that I’ll find that hidden gem someday! It’s a nice way to spend an afternoon if you have the time!

Best style tip?
In the words of Coco Chanel, when accessorising take off the last thing you put on.

Who do you think epitomises great style?
Coco Chanel. Or in modern day terms I’d suggest Mischa Barton – okay so she’s had a few blunders but that’s what taking chances is all about. Most of the time I think she looks fab.

Best high street store?
Zara and Noa Noa, I’m looking forward to seeing their new season at the fashion show at the TOP Ideal Home Show.

Where’s your favourite place to shop?
Fifth Avenue New York, it’s so alive and filled with unlimited shopping that you’re not quite sure where to start. It’s a real adventure!

Favourite online fashion haunts?
I think Littlewoods is excellent, very reasonable and has something for everyone. I’m loving the Fearne Cotton range at the moment. I also like Asos for the odd bargain too!

Whats been your worst fashion moment?
There’s been plenty as a kid! Fingerless gloves perhaps!!!
