Linda Richards can always be depended upon for her semi-annual warehouse sales. Lots of wonderful work clothes -- pants, skirts, suits, and really great winter coats. This woman never met a bolt of gabardine she didn't like. We always manage to find lots of things here to fill in holes in our ever-expanding wardrobe, and sometimes we have to buy them in many sizes, to fill in the holes in the ever-expanding size range in our closet. Among the outerwear, expect to find wondrous cashmeres, alpaca, angora, and her usual gabs, including her very versatile raincoats. And of course, stock up on all your work-clothes needs.

The sale started just before Thanksgiving and goes through December 2nd (9am to 6pm daily), so you have plenty of time. Buy what you want and then just tell Santa to give you the cash for it. How could the big guy refuse when you tell him that you paid wholesale or below? 209 W. 38th St., Suite 505 (between Seventh & Eighth Aves.), 212-382-2257
