In case you hadn't heard, the theme of this year's Philadelphia Flower Show is "Brilliant!" The nine-day show, which kicks off March 2, will center around London and its influence on the modern world.

That said, the Flower Show's annual Window Decorating Contest is in full swing, and boutiques all around Philly and the surrounding 'burbs are decorating their storefronts in their finest British fashion. Arcadia went with a teacup theme for their window display; Bus Stop has opted for roses and teeny-tiny shoes; and giant poppies have taken over South Moon Under. Scope out many more displays and vote for your favorite here, and you'll be entered to win two free tickets to the Flower Show. The crowd fave will be announced on February 28.
