Tam and Scott, what was your inspiration behind this photo sesh? We heard there was a certain rumor that you guys could give Gap Kids a run for their money.
Tam: This is what happens when you spend too much time together at ShoeDazzle. We start showing up in matching outfits and then finishing each other’s–
Scott: …sentences.
Tam: I was actually going to say “lunches,” Scott.
Scott: We’re like Bonnie and Clyde, only we steal office supplies and we don’t hurt anyone.
Tam: Scott occasionally wears fancy hats and dresses.
Scott: Don’t report us to Accounting, we’re just kidding.
Tam: I’m not kidding about Scott’s fancy hats.
Oh, you two!! Scott, what’s it like working for ShoeDazzle?
Scott: I’ll tell you what…I know more about women’s fashion than I ever thought I would. I figured out what a wedge was when I first got here, and I just learned the term “romper” (thanks, Tam). Aside from that, ShoeDazzle has been great! Tons of nice creative people working for a common goal!
Any favorite shoes you like on women in particular? (I.e. pumps, sneakers…you know the drill).
Scott: I would prefer her to wear sneakers/flats. I’m a pretty spontaneous dude, so you never know if we are going to be running from anything.
A man on the go! You’re our first guy to be featured on our blog! How does it feel?
Scott: I feel like a trailblazer, a real pioneer. I just hope the guys featured after me will appreciate the legacy I left them.
They will have some big shoes to fill! You get to work with a lot of creative minds and you’re also in our marketing department. What are some of your favorite things about working here?
Soctt: Just that. Working with these super creative people on a daily basis. I’m always learning something new every day. Thats why it’s that much harder to lose Tam from our team!
We know. We’re holding back the tears… What would you say are some of your favorite menswear pieces of the moment?
Scott: I would have to say currently, my Michael Kors watch and my Phillies fitted (that’s what the cool kids call caps these days). I also just moved and found a cool striped V-neck at the bottom of one of my drawers. I’m thinking of adding that to my T-shirt rotation.
How long does it take you to get ready?
Scott: It depends on the time of day. I don’t drink coffee so in the morning just dragging myself out of bed takes a good 15 minutes. Then I try and regain consciousness in the shower…another 20 minutes. Clothes and hair…5 more minutes and then I’m out the door.
Sounds like you got it down. On a first date, do you prefer a girl with pumps or flats? Does it not matter?
Scott: I dunno. Can she dance in heels?
We hope so! Lastly, Tam, we are heartbroken that you’re moving on to the next chapter in your life. We’ve loved having you as one of our copywriters. What will you miss most about ShoeDazzle as you leave us? Any last words?
Tam: I’ve been lucky enough to have so many epic adventures here! I’ll definitely miss working with such a hilarious, inspiring, and creative team (and brainstorming the best and worst puns imaginable on a daily basis…I still can’t believe I got away with referencing the 2006 Bubba Sparxxx song “Ms. New Booty” in an email subject line). Fortunately, I’ll be working nearby in the same city. Feel free to stalk me on Twitter @tamiam, and have a glass of champagne for me!
Thanks, you two! It’s been fun!
