The opening of Something About Her on May 22 was long awaited. Permit issues and other logistics have caused delays since Madix and Maloney first announced plans to open the store in 2022.
Despite everything, the women told PEOPLE that they never lost faith in each other.

“We both believed that it was always going to happen, that we were going to do it,” Madix said. “But there were definitely moments of deep breathing in moments where something else would pop up and you just have to take a second.”
The final product is a feminine store and menu inspired by a rom com movie. The sandwiches (prices range from $14 to $18) are named after leading ladies like Drew Barrymore, Reese Witherspoon and Cameron Diaz.
When asked how they assigned each a menu item, Madix said, “I feel like we’ve been tasting things and we’ve said, ‘This is good for this.’ Maloney repeated, “‘Yeah, this tastes like Drew, or this definitely tastes like Reese’s.'”
