Sarah Jessica Parker in Manila for SM Aura

We’ve seen the construction of the giant mall located along C5 in Taguig (near Bonifacio Global City) called The SM Aura and now we’re surprised it’s actually opening this week with no less than Hollywood actress Sarah Jessica Parker of Sex and the City fame as guest of honor.

SM Aura’s Facebook page says the mall will open on Friday, May 17 but SJP a.k.a Carrie Bradshaw will be meeting her fans and the press in an event before that. SM Aura Premier is poised to be a high-end mall and they’re right in choosing the Hollywood style icon to be their opening day VIP. Mostly, we’re also excited about SM Aura’s unveiling because they will also be introducing new brands to Manila like Suiteblanco, Stefanel and Petit Bateau.
