I had been asked by Littlewoods and Shop Direct group if I would like to interview Coleen Rooney. This was a question that I didn’t even hesitate to answer. YES! Coleen is a fashionista par excellence – a lady who certainly knows her way around a pair of Louboutins or a Roksanda Ilincic dress, whilst also producing an amazing range of fashion forward looks for Littlewoods. She is chic, elegant, and a mommy – I just knew that she’d be a fantastic person to have a chat with about fashion. And…
