I can see clearly now...


On board with the ghost chair trend. I placed an order for one last week and can't wait to show you how I plan to style mine! I like how the chair gives the illusion of added space in a room (something NYC apartments could use more of) and at the same time, adds a touch of glamour and elegance. 

Want one for yourself? You can buy the armless version on Amazon here and the ones with arms here.

I'm dreaming of a long, communal driftwood table with a mix of seating options (the matchy-matchy thing isn't for me). Some day, my table will come!

In love with this ingenious and multifunctional living room and workspace.

black ghost chair idea
It comes in black! Yay for options. I'm still in favor of the clear one though.

C'est magnifique!

ghost chair idea for work space
Some rooms just have the perfect combination of the undone and tidy look. This room would be one of them.

I'll probably throw a (faux) fur blanket over mine, as well. Why not.

Curious as to how it all began? From Utility:

"The Louis Ghost Chair really is baroque revisited. Designed by Philippe Starck for Kartell the Louis Ghost Chair has now become something of a must have. Indeed, the Louis Ghost Chair has become one of the first design classics of the 21st century - and rightly so. As a Louis XV style armchair this is a design which adds elegance and irony to any interior or exterior.

The manufacture of Louis Ghost represents a daring example of injection moulded polycarbonate in a single mould and is highly durable - being shock, scratch and weather resistant - making it suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

Following its launch in 2003 Louis Ghost has been a huge worldwide success for Kartell - so much so in fact that in 2008 Louis was joined by the baby Lou Lou Ghost Chair, a miniature Louis Ghost for children/decorative use. Louis Ghost comes in a variety of colours. There are six clear colours (clear, smoke, yellow, orange (a pinky tone), green and blue) and two solid colours - black and white. Louis can also be be stacked up to six chairs high, making it ideal for storing."

What do you think of the ghost chair / lucite furniture trend?

P.S. On another note, I'm thrilled to announce my article on "The Art of Style Curating" has been accepted for publication at e-zine! You can check it out here.

Man Repelling labial sweater
sweater: LF, shorts: Zara (also worn here and here), shoes: Jeffrey Campbell (also worn here), same damn bag: Hope

Channeling my inner man repeller with my LF sweater. It has cocoon sleeves, a turtleneck, and labial folds (in the front and back) for days. Of course, I paired my outfit with my bottomless Hope bag. Please feel free to gift me with a new one. Until then, this ole friend will do. 

Don't ask me what's going on with my hair - I don't know either. I call it my "I-don't-want-to-be-late-for-brunch" hair.

P.S. I recently picked up a light chambray shirt, cowboy motorcycle ankle boots, and a pair of genie shorts, all thanks to my Sprint paycheck. BOOM. Can't wait to feature them soon!
