A Pretty, Merry Kris-mas at SM?

MANILA, Philippines - Two weeks ago, Kris Aquino posted  photos of herself plus accessories and clothes on Instagram with the intriguing caption saying she was doing a pictorial for a brand she has been patronizing since her childhood days. Immediately, this triggered a barrage of comments/guesses from some of her 645,000 followers.

@jeromepadilla said: “Sa pictures parang si @krisaquino214 ang bagong endorser ng SM.”

@isabellechanelle-online shopping commented: “Nice. Maybe you’re one of the SM models na rin po, hehe. Pretty, pretty.”

@codnumyari19 added “Wow, amazing kikay accessories. I wish I could have one of those.”

@maribelpenaflor raved: “You look so beautiful, fresh and happy.”

@lanzoraquel gushed: “Nice, idol! Ala eh pagkaganda nmn.”

@renisaac noted: “I love your makeup here.”

There is also mention of her ex-future sister-in-law, top celebrity stylist Liz Uy, doing the styling for one of her pictorials.Yes, Kris looks her loveliest best in her current profile photo. Her makeup is perhaps the best we’ve seen of her lately. Kris does look pretty and happy.

Looks like she has totally moved on from her ex-lovers' war with former husband James Yap, who himself has been posting photos of  his current Italian girlfriend Michaela Cazzola on Instagram.

Just when you thought that Kris had endorsed every major and minor  brand — from noodles to tuna  to skin care to real estate, Kris definitely has staying power as far as commercial endorsements are concerned. The media queen is on television only in her Kris TV morning show, after she quit The Buzz and promised her brother, President P-Noy, to be less visible and less in the controversial public eye.

So should we soon expect Kris Aquino’s billboards side by side with SM Store’s current global endorser Sarah Jessica Parker ?
