About

A picture of Elise, so you know she's a real person

Elise Phillips has big ideas and a really short attention span (it took her six attempts to write this bio because she kept wandering off to do other things). Typical Gen Y, but don’t call her that, Elise lives in Sydney and is one of those people who sits in cafes with her laptop and drinks a lot of tea. She is the ultimate slashie – writer/blogger/social media whiz kid/butcher/baker/candlestick maker* and no two days are the same. Her shopping addiction is rivaled only by her online shopping addiction, and she has more beauty products than backstage at a fashion week show. She’s funny, she’s nerdy, and in a past life she was a market research analyst, so she thinks stats are cool. You can read about her nail polish addiction at www.thenailfile.com.au, buy nail polish from her at www.thenailfileshop.com.au or you can stalk her on Twitter @stufthatibought
