     As a young man, Tom was a famous artist with a wife and two fine sons. One night, his older son was ill. Tom and his wife thought it was nothing serious. But the boy died suddenly that night..

    After his son died, Tom always felt very sad. To make matters worse, his wife also left him later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son, Emie. Sadly, he turned to alcohol(酒) for help.

As time went by, Tom began to lose everything he had——his land, house, etc. A few months later, Tom passed away alone in a small bar. Hearing of Tom's death, I thought,"What a complete failure!"

   But later, I began to change my earlier opinion. I knew Tom's now adult son, Emie. He is one of the kindest, most caring men. I saw the love between Emie and his children. And I thought that kindness and caring had to come from somewhere.

    "Face it,Andy.You sold your heart the day you put on that first pair of Jimmy Choo's."That line from the movie The Devil Wears Prada is an example showing how a shoemaker has become famous in the fashion world.

    Jimmy Choos (Zhou Yangjie)was born in Malaysian and he is a Malaysian Chinese,born in 1961 into a family of shoemakers.He created his first pair of shoes at age 11.His family couldn't pay for his schooling,so he dropped out at a young age.He had to work with his father to support the family.But his dream to be a fashion designer never disappeared,so he did all he could to enter an art college and finally took up a position in the fashion world through his talent and willpower.

    Choo graduated from a college in London and had a small workshop there.He hit the international fashion scene when Vogue magazine described his designs in eight pages in 1988.His work was immediately popular and got love and support from Diana,Princess of Wales.

    Jimmy Choo shoes are known for their very high heels(鞋跟)and pointed toes.However,he does some flats and lower﹣heeled shoes for other women.Choo co﹣founded Jimmy Choo Ltd.with Tamara Mellon,UK Vogue editor,but left the company in 2001.

    Jimmy Choo shops have opened around the world,so his designs are easier to get to those who want a designer shoe,and can afford his prices.Choo also has a website where shoppers can view his ready to wear designs.The brand(牌子)of Jimmy Choo has been comparable to top brands,like Channel,LV,etc.But it's still young and has a bright future.

    We can't imagine how hard it is for Choo to stand out in the worldwide fashion! He must have made greater efforts and had more difficulties than others.And so he did.So stop complaining about why good luck isn't always falling on you and devote yourselves to your work now.
