The Dispatch
On the outside, Magalene s Boutique in downtown Lexington looks the same as it has for over a year, but a peek inside shows you something has definitely changed.
The dark brunette running around the clothing and accessories store is the first big change. Samantha Sturgill Ricks, a 2011 Central Davidson High School graduate, purchased the store at the end of June and opened it Tue, July 13.
The store now has an open feel to it with the clothing, jewelry and purse displays being pushed against the walls of the store.
While the name, for now, remains Magalene s, it too, will change shortly. The mother of three will rename the store Gabrielle Chic after her oldest child.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) â Fresh fruits and vegetables are essential to a healthy diet but acquiring them costs more than processed foods, an issue the Kentucky Department of Agriculture has been trying to solve for more than a decade and now is offering to veterans.
The Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program allows qualifying seniors to use vouchers at farmers markets all over the state to buy fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs and honey.
The Agriculture Department started an additional arm as a pilot program in the spring of 2021 in four counties catering just to veterans. The counties include Christian, Hardin, Madison and Fayette.
The event is officially back July 1 to kick of the Fourth of July weekend. It will run for 15 weeks with live music packing the pavilion at Tandy Park.
