Choosing Chairs

By | Published Sunday, February 27, 2011

Lately I've been adoring funky, eclectic chairs.
Ogling and drooling over items that I have no room for and no intention of buying. Since contemplating a future house, thoughts of potential furniture have worked there way into the scene as well.
What can I say, I have chair lust at the moment. 
And these are the items I've been admiring...

This chair would look darling around a dining table. I love the idea of utilizing different styles of chairs in one color scheme, or just having one chair that is unique (with a pop of color).

This wingback chair is so sophisticated, especially in this soft grey tone.

I tend to gravitate towards chairs that are upholstered in delightful patterns and are structurally more "curvy."  For me, this gives the furniture a more elegant, feminine touch.

The ultimate modern rocking chair.

Zachary's preferred reading chair. Can see the difference in our styles? :)


Picking out pieces that speak to me has really helped define my style and what furniture I prefer. 
Do you have a favorite chair that you own or that you are eyeballing? 
Any suggestions on great places to shop for furniture?

    Yes! I think we'll have to do that! Or else he'll have a designated man cave for his man furniture. :)
