MIC Green Ribbon Cutting – Barbie’s Shoe Closet
Barbara “Barbie” Hudson is the founder and CEO of Barbie’s Shoe Closet. Her passion for style and fashion has led her to opening her first women’s shoe boutique at 1400 Veterans Memorial Highway in Mableton. The store is located in The Walk at Legacy shopping center where every woman can select the perfect shoe. Barbie believes that shoes are a crucial item for every outfit and more importantly they are the foundation we walk on. While having an assortment of shoes that go from day to evening and everything in between can be considered a luxury to many, Barbie’s Shoe Closet changes that. Barbie found a disconnect between the availability of fashionable shoes and competitive prices. Barbie has closed that gap with Barbie’s Shoe Closet which sells stylish shoes for every woman. Here, you will find the latest shoe trends from heels to flats that will perfectly accompany your last-minute business meeting or a night out with your girls.
Barbie is inspired to provide every guest with their own “Barbie Experience” by feeling stylish, sophisticated and purchasing shoes at an amazing value. Barbie is fluent in Portuguese and Spanish and has over 25 years of retail management experience. Barbie has lived in the Atlanta for the past 20 years and is married to her amazing husband William with two incredible children Bryonna and Christopher. When she is with her family she enjoys traveling, eating different foods and watching sports. You can reach her at barbiesshoeclosetatl@gmail.com or on FB and IG @Barbiesshoecloset.
