About

It all started as a means of procrastination. Back in 2007, I was in my final year of university, spending hours in the library doing research and writing papers. My "study breaks" were increasingly spent surfing fashion blogs and websites. Eventually I thought it might be fun to start my own.

Solo Lisa has since evolved from a personal site into a site focused on beauty, life and style. I never imagined when I started that I'd be published in FLARE magazine or reviewing top-notch beauty products, or that I would meet such great people in the process.

Outside of blogging, I work full-time in the software industry as a technical writer. I enjoy seeing new movies on opening weekend and following corgis on Instagram, and I'm positively addicted to the Bar Method. My husband and I are aspiring minimalists who are learning to live more simply in our cozy condo in Mt. Pleasant, Vancouver, Canada. What else can I tell you? I like lipstick more than gloss, savoury more than sweet, and although I believe heels are inherently sexier than flats, what's sexiest of all is a woman who feels confident and can actually walk in her shoes.

Welcome to my blog. I hope you enjoy your visit.
