Legal Bits for Business Revisits the Vault with Abby Walker!

May 15, 2020

This week we are revisiting our interview with Abby Walker!


Abby Walker is the CEO of Vivian Lou, a company that designs high-heel inserts. Her love for shoes began when she was living in Chicago - two years out of college, insecure about her professional credentials and low on cash. She worked with women who had gorgeous hair, gorgeous bags, gorgeous clothes and gorgeous jewelry. To say she felt inept is an understatement.

Abby struggled to find her niche in a world of confident, accomplished, beautiful women. Then she found an amazing pair of black and white polka-dotted heels. They were affordable, yet distinct, and set her apart from others in the office. She was instantly hooked on heels.

Her love for shoes blossomed, and she continued to push the edge as to what she could (or should) wear to work while pursuing a growing communications career. The more distinct the shoe, the greater Abby's courage— at work and in her personal life.

After 15 years in Corporate America and many pairs of high heels later, Abby finally found the courage to start her own business. 

Abby believes the right pair of shoes can change your perspective on everything and she's honored to offer a line of products that help women focus more on their dreams and less on their feet!

In support of Abby's mission at Vivian Lou, she proudly donates a portion of every sale to organizations helping disadvantaged women revitalize their confidence and reclaim their independence.  

Here's to focusing more on our dreams and less on our foot pain!

Abby looks forward to hearing your stories of reduced pain, improved balance, straighter posture and increased courage!
