Lilly : I will get this pretty-pink dress and you a smartypants suit . . oh, we will be so dazzling in the Spotlight !
Ronnie : Whoa . . I don’t want to lose my head over this.
Lilly : After, you could get a job in that window, Ronnie. Made for it.

This site is turning classical, conventional, almost Victorian.

your effort in this is great - I don't know how you got that reflection of the Lilly storefront onto yours Ronnie, but it was well done....

@Chris: Thank you. First time we tried one of those, Chris, and, compared to some of our tricks, it was not that tough !

You could each get a job in the respective windows and gaze at each other every day.

You have put these two store fronts together as if they have always been there.
I love the pink cinderella dress, and what would really keep this wonderful fairytale going is Ronnie in that tiny uniform next to the pretty pink dress, like a miniature prince.
If not fairytale a continued comedy.
Oh, and look how neat each shirt is in it's own slot in the men's ware. Why can't they do that at home?
I love the inspiration for my imagination from your images. Great work!

@Barbara: : (from Lilly) The first thing I noticed in Ronnie's half was the shirt wall! I don't even think he had noticed it yet! Must be something a woman sees! : (from Ronnie) Yup, Lilly is 100% right that I never noticed the wall of shirts while I was there. Shirts in that neighborhood can cost more than I would pay for a suit so it is lucky I didn't see them !

Sweet. I like the color and tones and the suggested conversation.

Always have to wait a minute after laughing... to be able to laugh again !
For sure you never lose your head, nope ! :)

The period costume left reminds me of a line from the BBC show Extras. Remarking about the look of one of the main actors in period costume on a movie set, the female extra asks the male extra: Why don't men dress like that anymore? And he says: Probably because they'd get beaten up in the tube.

@Twelvebit: : (from Ronnie) hee hee . . yes, one of the (many) odd things in London is that there are workers at visitor attractions who DO travel on the Tube in their regalia .. and, being London, no-one takes much notice . . lol . .
JoeB from Brampton, Canada
I like the blending with a corner in it!! I don't think Ronnie is capable of standing still for long or short for that matter.

Wow... that's excellent... I can see a twilight zone episode in this one.
21 Jul 2009 12:54am
@Earnest: Some of these do spawn spin-offs we never dreamed about !

Clothes for headless people? Well put together.

Wonderful combination. Who wouldn't believe that this scene wasn't for real!
21 Jul 2009 4:46am
@Andrew Gould: Thanks, Andrew . . the credibility of some of these is kinda scary, yes ?
Monique from Koh Samui, Thailand
I'm still figuring out how you've put these two together ... as if they belong that way! I love Lilly's taste, that's one gorgeous dress ... she'll be the belle of the ball! Good luck with that job Ronnie! :)
21 Jul 2009 6:15am
@Monique: Thank you, Monique. One of the nicest discoveries of OurTwoSense is that Visitors can feel an involvement in the images and that displaying and looking becomes more of a two-way street. This corner does not exist, of course, but, if we went there, we'd all recognize it !
Zing from Hamilton, New Zealand
I like the reflection of the pink dress on the other store, nice one!
21 Jul 2009 6:27am
@Zing: : (from Ronnie) Thanks, Zing . . yes, the idea of re-creating a reflection in a corner was in our minds before we went take the pics . . compared to some of our tricks, it was not that difficult !
Lunamania from Oakland, United States
I love all the details--the blue ribbon frame, the array of shirts, the reflection of the pink dress--wonderful image.

Smashing reflections, but you're right not worth losing your head over ;)

Careful you don't get pushed into a corner here, Ronnie :) This is absolutely outstanding!

Ronnie I'm sure if you were in the window you would be head and shoulders above the rest and of course we will drink, we will drink to Lilly the Pink.

There seems to be a conversation going on between the plastic headless people in the windows. Your composition is so emotive, fun and artsy, and I imagine them ballroom dancing at night when the lights go out! So cool!

@bluechameleon: :
(from Ronnie) Love it when the imagination tears itself free . . I think you are right, Sharon !

Actually I prefer headless manequins, the faces always look so fake! Good one, love the reflections!

I amazed at how you two can work together like this. Fantastic image.

What a dress! I like the way that the male mannequins are turned toward the female mannequin.. as if they are admiring her. :)

Great shot. I like the way the pink dress reflects over the smartypants suits! You might like to view my photo and my friend's poem, that goes along your same theme: Manny-Kins

i guess everybody lost their "heads" when they saw all that shirts lined up, and the reflections it was a nice touch, very creative.

Anita from West Nottingham, United States
Perfect. Great dialogue. Love how you put the images together. The reflection is awesome! Even more awesome is that you thought of doing it before taking the photos. I can't imagine how you plan these being on different continents. The bright colors of the wall of shirts (I didn't notice them either) is a great counterbalance to the bright left side.
