Lisa Tong Interview

Popular blogger Lisa Tong, who provides better living tips for the household CEO at lisatong.com, recently wrote an awesome Do It Yourself Bra Fitting Guide. We were lucky enough to catch up with Lisa Tong for a quick interivew about her blog, bra trends and more.

T Back Bra: What is lisatong.com all about?
Lisa Tong: Public blog about things of interest, events, mother advice, experience sharing and reviews. Although the spin is becoming less personal and more focused on experience sharing.

T Back Bra: What is your most popular post on lisatong.com?
Lisa Tong: The most popular page right now is How to Hire a Domestic Helper in Hong Kong - I actually get 100+ hits on this page per day and at least 1 comment/request a day for my rules. The whole helper series does well. I think I've found a niche market here on this topic and I'm glad to be able to assist where I can. Having gone through 3 helpers in 1 year is an emotional and financial drain and if I can share this to people in similar situations, hopefully they can save heartache, headaches and money.

T Back Bra: I like your "momics". Which one is your favorite?
Lisa Tong: Thank you. Probably my daughters sneezing and stuff coming out of their nose simultaneously. But honestly, everything they do is funny. I'm sure every parent will say that about their children. That's why parents are usually camera crazy with everything their children do - because it's really my own at-home comedy affair when my children talk or do things. But of course, that's what makes life fun - all this craziness and unexpected reaction and wild home baked stories. You only live once afterall.

T Back Bra: Are there any hot fashion trends (bra related or otherwise) you are seeing for 2009?
Lisa Tong: I am probably NOT the best person to ask about this. But I will give my best shot. I see 2009 trends in bras as being floral, colourful and extreme. You have extreme shoes (particularly funky heels), bags and designers using interesting patterns and colours and this may filter into the bra industry. But of course, nothing is predictable sometimes because consumer tastes change so frequently and every designer is unique in their own way or try to bring something they think will be hit to the table.

T Back Bra: Is there anything else you would like to share with the readers of TBackBra.com?
Lisa Tong: Yes! Keep reading blogs! With such a readily platform available to the world, use it, create it, and make it the best possible avenue for information and experience sharing. And to not be afraid to share stuff on blogs and voice your opinion. Having a firm opinion on topics and things of interest is what makes it interesting - because that's what keeps people reading more.
