Twenty Old Town boutiques are falling into fashion with deals, giveaways, and more on Saturday (Oct. 11).

From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., the boutiques are featuring exclusive fall collections, interactive in-store activations, and seasonal bites and sips. Customers can also buy a seasonal tote from participating businesses, and enter to win a $1,000 gift card and Aiyana Atelier products, and a second prize of a $500 gift card at any participating boutique.

“Reviving a beloved tradition, Alexandria Days began in 1959 as a cooperative campaign between local merchants and City leaders to champion small businesses during the late-summer season,” the Old Town Boutique Community said in a release.
