some windows I saw on Solidaire in Beirut





Window shopping. Upscale shopping is part of going to Solidaire. A fat wallet is helpful for those who are doing more than window shopping.

A must stop: house of Arabian perfume. Abdul Samad Al Qurashi House of Aoud, Amber and Perfumes

The Arabian perfumes are much better than the branded ones.

Dad and son swim shorts for the many private swim resorts, hotels and clubs.

Tv screen in front of Costa Coffee. Tennis player Maria Sharapova at the French Open.

shoes, handbags and necklaces

dresses, handbags, shoes and necklaces

shoes. There is no shortage of shopping in Beirut. Capitalism and consumer culture thrive.

yes, I would say capitalism is seductive....how else can we explain its staying power despite its terrible abuses and exploitations?
