Not only is Megan Fenno the other half of “One Chic Mother to Another” on Holly Morgan’s mid-morning show, but she also has some serious design chops. A native of Cincinnati’s West Side, Megan graduated with a degree in fashion and accessory design from Savannah College of Art & Design and was even a finalist to appear on Project Runway! She’d love to meet Tim Gunn again – this time for coffee and the scoop on all the behind-the-scenes drama.

Despite her stylish creds, Megan remembers plenty of fashion blunders from her youth: “Oversized sweatshirts paired with stirrup leggings…and permed bangs. Yikes!”

When she’s not on air with Holly, Megan is the Lifestyle Editor at cincysavers.com and the owner of online accessories boutique FENNOfashion.com. She married her high-school sweetheart and their young son, 80-pound German Shepherd and three-pound curly-furred cat keep her pretty busy, too.
