That's why you should get at least one defensive item with her. GA is the best choice, not only because how risky Riven turns as the game progresses, but also because the hybrid resistances help her shield scale like crazy. If you're facing a heavy AD teamcomp you can switch it for a Randuin's, and if you're against a heavy AP you can take either Banshee's or Malmortius, depending on the type of burst.

You can also try a more defensive setup, GA is pretty much overwhelmed by Randuin's+Malmortius if you don't mind taking it's slot for Randuin's and any AD item place for MoM. It's not like if I don't like "kill-kill" glass canon Riven, but personally I preffer this playstyle.

And of course, you can get Merc's or Tabi instead of Ludicity boots if you're in that situation, specially Merc's. You don't have any use for that 15% CDR if the enemy team claims a  hard-CC-fest over you.
