Teresa Giudice Supports Melissa Gorga's Store Opening in First Red Carpet Appearance Since Her Release

Teresa Giudice has been out of prison for less than a month, but she's already looking and acting like The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom we all know and love. Teresa kept it in the family for her first red carpet appearance Thursday evening at none other than the official opening for sister-in-law Melissa Gorga's new store Envy by Melissa Gorga. "I'm feeling great," Teresa told E! News. "I'm happy to be here to support my brother and my sister-in-law Melissa for the grand opening on her boutique Envy."

In fact, Teresa was extremely complimentary of Melissa's new business venture. "[Melissa] has great style and you see her on the red carpet and you see her being photographed, so, and you can tell from the photographs that she has great style," she said.

Melissa was thrilled that Teresa came out to support her new boutique. "I love her and she's doing great, so thank God," Melissa told E! News.

Teresa was accompanied by her eldest daughter Gia Giudice at the event, who revealed that she looks to her mama for style inspiration. "My background is fashion. I went to school for fashion," Teresa said.  "I used to work at Macy's Herald Square in the buying office and I also was on the vendor side. I worked for Nine West and Calvin Klein handbags. So, I have a fashion background. She has her mommy."
