A spritely young gun interested in history, the present tense and the future of art, Cassie buys her headwear at the annual Renegade Craft Fair which coincidentally is happening this weekend in McCarren Park, Brooklyn.

We feel that Cassie's headband compliments her vintage blouse and vibrant pencil skirt. Only after the fact did we realize that the headband was the "A Little Birdie Told Me" style made by Pretty Good Things out of Lincoln, Nebraska.

Owner of Pretty Good Things, Mary P. makes carefully crafted hats, fascinators and hair do-dads are influenced by current trends, pop culture, class and tradition and sells through her Etsy site and at The Renegade Craft Fair. -Braylen Barr
