Coleen Rooney returned to work for the first time since becoming a mum today as she opened an Argos store.

But it didn't turn out to be too taxing for the WAG - she simply had to cut a ribbon and sign autographs.

The 24-year-old officially declared the new Argos store in St Helens, Merseyside open earlier this morning and took the opportunity to plug her jewellery range.

But while selling her affordable 'Coleen X' collection, Wayne Rooney's wife was dressed in a £650 outfit.

Despite the windy day, Coleen looked summery in a £285 white Alice By Temperley lace dress and £365 Miu Miu cork and leather wedge sandals.

Rooney was asked to open the new store at the Ravenshead retail park because she's had her own jewellery range at the catalogue chain since last year.

While Rooney's Argos collection ranges from £7.99 to £39.89, her real-life jewellery horde isn't quite in the same price range.

For her 22nd birthday two years ago, Wayne bought his wife a £140,000 diamond necklace from Manchester jewellers Boodle and Dunthorne.

She also wears a £250,000 diamond-encrusted wedding ring and a £200,000 ten carat diamond ring, which was a 21st birthday present from Wayne.

Coleen has taken a step back from public life since giving birth to son Kai Wayne last November.

She is currently enjoying maternity leave from her OK! magazine column and her ITV2 show Coleen's Real Women.

Coleen admitted she is enjoying being a full-time mum and is in no rush to return to work.

She said: 'I definitely want more children. Not right at this minute, but maybe in a year or so. I'm not rushing back to work either, I'm just enjoying being a mum.

'I've got bits and pieces I'm still doing. I was supposed to have filmed another series of my TV show but I fell pregnant and the filming would have been when I was having him. So there is still that to go back to.'

Affordable: The 'Coleen X' collection includes a sterling silver pink heart bracelet (£26.39) and a black stone set watch (£14.99)
