Princess in Me: A Merry Christmas in SM

Last Friday, our very own princesses got invited to a Royal Ball held at SM The Block Atrium. The area was transformed into a fabulous Royal Princess Hall and my princesses were really surprised. May hint of sadness lang sila kasi si Nanay did not know they were suppose to come in their most fabulous gowns! May next time pa naman.

We were greeted by different beautiful princesses at the entrance.

Then we were ushered to the different booths. Both A and M enjoyed the pampering they received. They got glitter tattoos, nail art, face-painting and hair make-over.

Here are our glammed-up happy princesses.

The princesses also tried sitting on a throne while being presented the glass slipper. A looks so cute in the Barbie photobooth box.

It was truly an afternoon full of fun and surprises. We were among the first ones to witness the majestic lighting of The Princess Tree, which I think is such a unique and glamorous concept. The tree was lighted by SM Prime Holdings Inc President, Mr. Hans Sy, together with pretty little princesses lead by Internet Superstar Kendra Kramer. Other people who graced the event were Ms. Myrna Lao (Founder of Richprime Global), Ms. Millie Dizon (SM SVP for Marketing), Ms. Annie Garcia (SM President of SMSC), Jonjon Agustin (SM VP Marketing) and (AVP for Operations) Mr. Renee Bacani. Kids from Child Haus, also attended the event and they were given an early Christmas present. Child Haus is a temporary shelter for patients of cancer and other diseases who come to Manila for treatment but have no place to stay.
