I'm positively drooling over the latest crop of reinvented vintage chairs from San Francisco boutique Lotus Bleu (earlier versions blogged here). The French/Vietnamese-flavored Hayes Valley shop takes pedigreed midcentury seating and updates it with vibrant and feminine fabrics, to gorgeous effect. Above: Slipper Chair, $1,550
Midcentury Sprung Rocker, $1,350
Reclining Lounge With Ottoman, $1,550
Vintage Armchair, $750
Rocker and Ottoman, $1,650
Wingback Lounge Chair, $2,450
Armchair, $750
Danish Armchair, $750
Danish Modern Armchair, $1,550
Granted, I'll probably never be in a position to drop $1,500 or more on a single chair, but these are inspiring me to take a fresh look at flea market furniture and fun fabrics. (In fact, Lotus Bleu can even reupholster that hand-me-down from Grandma for you in one of these amazing Robert Le Heros fabrics.)

Oooh, love that one with the blue, white, and dark wood. Beautiful.
Sneak a peek at the slipper chair from Target on my site-www.girlzdealz.com. For $299, fun, functional and the fabrics are great! They have a very vintage feel, and a more affordable price tag.
I MUST have the Slipper Chair! Great Blog! AND Thanks for having us on your East Bay Shopping List!
Thanks for the link to those Target chairs, Tracey -- very tempting!
