The week in shopping
This week, I have three words for you: Nolita shoe sales. Sigerson Morrison's biannual "crazy sale" is in effect (I believe shoes are either 40% or 50% off this week), and now Hollywould and Geraldine are joining the fray. Wear easily removable shoes and don't take all the 8 1/2's, ladies.

Sale of the week: Hollywould's ultra-girly shoes are 60%-80% off at their famous Insane Sale (not to be confused with S-M's aforementioned "crazy sale")--the discounts get deeper as the week progresses. 1/12-1/15; 11:30-7: 198 Elizabeth St., (at Prince St.).

The oft-overlooked Dosa has very feminine, silky tees, camis and slip dresses in the $30-$100 range. 1/14-1/16; 11-6; 394 Broadway (at Walker St.), 6th fl.

Everything at the excellent Geraldine (read: shoes by Narciso Rodriguez, Marc Jacobs, Viktor and Rolf, and more) is $189 and under. Through 1/23; 11:30-7:30, noon-6 Sun.; 246 Mott St. (at Prince St.).

You still probably can't afford anything there, but Pratesi's robes, slippers, linens, and such are 20%-50% off. Through 1/31; 10-6, closed Sun.; 829 Madison Ave. (at 69th St.).

Frency cobbler Robert Clergerie's wedges, Mary Janes, boots, heels and more are up to 60% off. 1-6, 10-7 Thurs, noon-5 Sun.; 681 Madison Ave.

I've never heard of this store, but it sounds like my kind of place: Diane T. has clothes and accessories by Rebecca Taylor, Sigerson Morrison, and Marc by Marc Jacobs at up to 50% off. 1/12-2/12; closed Mon.; 174 Court St. (at Bergen St.), Cobble Hill.

Salivate, sneaker freaks: Classic Kicks has footwear from Nike, Vans, and Pro Keds and clothes from Lacoste and Puma for 50%-70% off ($15 and up). 1/13-1/17; 11-7; 298 Elizabeth St. (Houston & Prince Sts.).

I have a feeling the PETA people are going to get all up in my business for this one, but Pologeorgis furs are a very pleasing 60% off. Call 212-563-2250 to make an appointment, not harass them. 1/12-1/18; 143 W. 29th St. (at 7th Ave.), 8th fl.
