Coleen Rooney: All Out At Aintree
With just one sleep to go until one of our favourite days on the sporting and fashion calendar, Coleen Rooney has thrown down a gauntlet on race day garments already.
The aforementioned Ladies Day doesn’t occur until tomorrow, but we’ve successfully retrieved our champagne stash back from the Celtic lads and have begun popping the popcorn and hiding the good chocolate in anticipation of viewing the horrific er, innovative looks Liverpool always serves up for us.
Coleen Rooney was fast out of the gate this morning as she took in the day’s festivities with Man United’s Darren and Hayley Fletcher and Jonny Evans. Coleen is in a sizzling hot pink lantern-sleeved dress by Brit designer Roksanda Ilincic. (Image via Style.com)
She’s smartly taken up the hemline to suit her height and added a black belt to accentuate her small waist.It’s a bold move from Coleen to go with neon on day one, but we like where this is going. Your move, Gerrard.
I like Col's adjustments to the dress. I love the retro hair, she looks great. She actually looks better than the model on the runway and that's a rare feat.
I love the colour!
Colleen looks pretty but the pink is just a bit too neon for me.
oh coleen is sooo pretty & lovely model
How creepy does Jonny Evans look in the window?!!! Also, on a United fan group where a shot of the guys walking to the grounds was posted, a bunch of the guys are arguing about Wayne Rooney's choice of brown shoes with his navy blue suit! I saw nothing wrong with his choice of shoe.
Guy on the far left: you need to work on being more photogenic lol.
Collen perfect and the boy Beer OMG!
If I were the designer I'd sue Coleen Rooney. Chopping it off into a mini-dress completely ruined the lines and the patent leather belt and bouffant hair gives it a retro 60's feel.
Coleen at best is 5'5, sticking her in the full length gown would not only look ridiculous and a tad dangerous for her height but imagine the stick she'd get for it! It'd be bad enough in the press but on here everyone would rip her apart! I think she looks gorgeous, the pink suits her.
And sue her? She brought it, she owns it, she can do with it what she likes. She could line her dogs basket with it if she wanted too.
It was hyperbole to make a point, if a design doesn’t suit you why subject it to torture rather than find one that does suit? There are some girls who can buy a designer outfit and take it apart and just make it their own and it looks fantastic but she does not have that finesse. And while I like the pink it clashes badly with her orange skin.
As for the dog basket, I can’t dispute the truth of that, and frankly most of what she wears would be better utilized in this way, I dislike her sense of style in the extreme, but it’s just my opinion and I respect that others have a different view, vive la différence!
Coleen looks fantastic!
Hayley Fletcher looks great!
