The Cast has to be one of the sickest clothing shop in NYC. As soon as you walk through the door, you know you've found a treasured gem. Whether it be for some killer original T's, denim and leather goods, or to the amazing vintage oddities this store definitely has a little something for everyone.



I first met Chuck and Elisa, (Owners and Designers), when I went to check out the shop with Katie and Brian from the Salon. I have to say, it's been a while since I have met such fun loving down to earth people! After a couple months of randomly stopping in to pick up a T, or running into each other in the neighborhood. We were constantly talking about music and upcoming shows. The next thing I know, we're tailgating at Iron Maiden, full on Heavy Metal Parking Lot style, and dancing on stage with Iggy Pop together in Atlantic City!! What a pleasant surprise it has been to make friends with genuine people, that share the same passion for music! Now they are both my clients as well!!

I just went in a few weeks ago and grabbed one of the new 'Cast' tote bags w/a Cramps pin and an awesome pair of Stevie Nicks style witch boots!! The highly anticipated womens 'Aloha From Hell' collection, has finally made it's way into the shop which gets me so amped! If you've never cruised by, you should, it's totally worth it!! :) **ROCK ON!!**--Prissy

October Astrology Forecast

Venus goes retrograde on October 8th! The planet of love is also a planet of clashing values.

LIBRA (SEPT 21-OCT 21)Now that Saturn has become unstuck from Pluto and Uranus, it is moving at a pretty good clip through Libra. During the first few days of October, Saturn hangs out with the Sun, leaving you feeling kind of serious and responsible. Together with the last days of the Mars-Venus conjunction, Saturn and the Sun facilitate work getting done. But you may be feeling a bit gloomy. And besides, Venus comes to a screeching halt before it turns retrograde, so things feel unsettled and slightly weird. The new moon on the 7th is in your sign, so use it for some reflection as you prepare for 40 days of Venus retrograde. Mars and Pluto make a powerful angle on this new moon, which doesn't bode well for the world staying calm this month. Remember that Venus retrograde can be kind of delicious in that important things are revealed to you about your real desires. Meanwhile the North Lunar Node heads right into a conjunction with Pluto this month, deepening relationships in all the right ways.
