The sleek, metallic style of these bistro chairs paired with a shabby chic wood table or floor is quite delicious. Plus, their simple design is ideal for smaller spaces (note to self).

One of these chairs would be gorgeous in an entry way or even a bedroom.

While the brighter varieties are really fun,

I'm a sucker for the more neutral, unpainted variety.

Still not convinced that these chairs are styling? Tell that to Anna Wintour who perches on one behind the editor's desk at Vogue. Oh la la!
