Okay first off let me just say that jetlag is NO JOKE. Yesterday was literally the longest Wednesday ever – we left Tokyo at 12 PM and landed back in San Francisco at 11 AM. WHAT. I was essentially stuck in a Wednesday time warp for 12 hours (with only 3 hours of in-flight sleep) and as someone who really needs her sleep, I feel all kinds of messed up.

Anyway, Japan was incredible, much more on that to come but I wanted to dust off the blog after taking a week off to show you a dress I recently grabbed from ASOS that has become an instant favorite:

I feel like the weeks after Labor Day are kind of an awkward time for my closet – my mind automatically shifts to fall right after Labor Day weekend and yet the weather never seems to cooperate (we came home to a heat wave in SF and it’s been ROUGH considering very few places have air conditioning because the weather is usually so mild. Jetlag + a very hot apartment = a very cranky Cait). I’ve been loving this gingham dress I grabbed from ASOS because it’s just one of those ultra easy pieces – the bold pattern stands on its own without a ton of accessories yet the comfortable cotton fabric, flattering cut + pockets make it a great choice for the not quite summer, not quite fall time period we’re in.

Anyone catch my terrible “Gangnam Style” pun in the title there? We had a brief layover in South Korea yesterday so I couldn’t resist ;)
