In Alexandria, Halloween isn’t just a holiday—it’s an art form. Streets glow with purple lights and iridescent spiders, 12-foot skeletons guard front yards and doorways, and friendly rivalries over “most creative” and “most extra” displays are in full swing. Before the candy rush begins, our contributors share how they celebrate spooky season in style.

Eliana Curated brings fashion-forward flair home with a new collection of framed art prints — elegant, ready to hang, and perfectly suited for Old Town’s timeless aesthetic.

This September, jewelry is stepping into the spotlight. From bold gold and playful pearls to colorful rivières, the season’s biggest trends are both wearable and eye-catching. Stop by Eliana Curated (1003 King Street) to create your own custom bracelet stack for just $125 and refresh your fall style with sparkle.

When we opened our doors, I thought I understood what the word community meant. But it wasn’t until that day, standing inside the corner of Old Town on Patrick and King St, that the word stopped being an abstract concept and started becoming something I could feel. Within days, we weren’t just a new boutique on King Street—we were part of a family.

Alexandria is packed with charm, history, and must-try experiences, so it’s no wonder friends and family are always dropping in. We asked our contributors to share their can’t-miss recommendations for visitors (and locals looking for a little staycation fun). See which ones made the list and add a few to your own itinerary.
