ONE WOULD NEVER GUESS THAT THE SUPER-STYLISH Kristen Keogh, of FOX 10, hates\u00a0the mall.

(Plus,\u00a0Keogh acknowledges that clothes can easily be destroyed while being out in the field, so\u00a0she tries not to spend too much.) When she does splurge, Tory Burch or Michael Kors\u00a0are her go-to designers. Her rule of thumb for her on-air looks: solid colors with a piece\u00a0of statement jewelry. www.myfoxphoenix.com.<\/p>\n
