I think the fairy godmother sprinkled some magic dust onto me recently. Why?  I was invited via Polyvore to cover the annual UNICEF Snowflake ball taking place tonight in Manhattan.  A black tie red carpet event that raises money for UNICEF and celebrates the lighting of their giant crystal snowflake that hangs each year above 5th avenue & 57th street.

The cinderella part is that Valentino has generously loaned me two Spring 2012 RTW gowns from which to choose from to wear (yes, I still can’t believe it. You should’ve seen my face when their messenger rang my door bell holding the Valentino garment bag).

My question to you:  I need your help deciding which one to wear tonight!!

I love the romantic vintage feel of the first, the strong Valentino red of the second and the incredible detailing of them both.  Basically I cannot decide.  BOTH have side pockets which I love on gowns which makes it that much harder.

So which one?!

ps. Follow me on twitter &  instagram today and tonight to follow my prep, attending the ball & to see which one I picked!
