Melissa Gorga can add another title on her ever-growing resume: store owner!

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star chatted with E! News at the opening of her new shop, aptly dubbed Envy by Melissa Gorga, and dished on everything from her style tips to her music career.

When asked what she envisions as her perfect client, the mother of three shared, "You know what, it's more about envying the clothes and envying something that someone is wearing. So that's kind of where Envy came from. I wanted something chic and something very short," Melissa told us.

So what can fans expect to see at the New Jersey store? Melissa revealed, "This is a lot of my own taste and it looks exactly like my closet at home, so it's like walking into my closet."

And while Melissa's plans for a successful music career were highly documented on the hit Bravo series, she admitted to us that that part of her professional life is on the backburner for now.

"I haven't made a song maybe in like a couple years now. That was super fun, it was something super exciting for me that I loved and that I'll cherish and I enjoyed. That was a true dream to be able to have that and be able to have those songs that my kids play in my house and sing to. I love that I did that [but] I don't think I'll continue with that for now."

She added, "Never say never, you know? I may get back in the studio one day but for now I'm focusing here."

But back to the matter at hand, Melissa's new shop! One very special guest came to the red carpet event to lend their support at the opening: Teresa Giudice.

"I love her and she's doing great, so thank God," Melissa said while smiling. We're glad to hear it!
