When Lulu first came out, a lot of people liked playing her top with a build similar to On-Hit Teemo. She has a lot of getaway tools so she does fine against the bruisers. With On-Hit items, the attack speed scales well with her innate. When she hits 6, she has a heal and knock-up if they dare to come close.

I'll make up a solo top build just for kicks. Boots + 3 pots -> Vamp Sceptre -> Malady -> Ninja Tabi's -> Wit's End -> Frozen Mallet -> Blood Thirster -> Guardian Angel.

Of course, you'll have to be good at stop-shooting, attack animation canceling, and kiting. You'll have to be familiar with solo top. In other words, you have to know all of your enemy's abilities, ranges, and cooldowns. (When I forgot I just wiki it before a match). Max sheep first, then shield. Leave Q at lvl 1.

tl;dr: I go solo top as Graves and build squishy like any other solo top. I then proceed to carry my team. If Graves can solo top, then so can Lulu. The disadvantage to going top with someone like Graves, Lulu, Kayle, or Teemo is that your team will be missing a powerful tank, but if you are able to shut down the enemy tank top, then you should be fine.
