Maria Majari, co-founder of Jada Dubai, said that they only use rare diamonds on their shoes, according to this article. That adds a tremendous value to the total cost of the shoes. Majari was also the one that designed the Passion Diamond Shoes. The pair of high heels is made out of four main materials: gold patent leather, silk, gold, and diamonds. What else could you ever need in a pair of shoes, after all? The pumps are quite sophisticated. The lines are clean, the tips pointy. The heel itself is about 5 inches of the golden stiletto. The outline of the upper is lined with brilliant small diamonds—all 236 of them. At the center of each of the shoe sits one flawless and stunning 15-carat D diamond. We just hope that they use something stronger than super glue to make sure that gem doesn’t go anywhere.

An interview that can be found at aquariumdrunkard.com/2008/07/10/matt-berninger-the-national-the-ad-interview/: The lyrics are sad and nostalgic, and they position a romantic relationship by using politicized language. Relationships are about losing and regaining personal sovereignty, and creating--upon a given landscape--a kind of psychic map...think of it as geographic waypoints significant to a couple's existence. The "Fake Empire" is the relationship as projected out into a city...it creates a significant landscape that is meaningful to the singer, but is ultimately just a construct, not real in any formal sense. It's the territory of the couple's own making...both real and imaginary.if the lemonade here is intended to suggest the lemonade made in the axiom about life handing you lemons, it's crushing to think that even that most optimistic outlook is so bleak that we might "put a little something in our lemonade" - i.e. liquor it up to numb ourselves, to stay only "half-awake" so we don't have to admit it's a fake empire.
