Eames chairs

When I conjure up images of my future New York City apartment (whenever that may come to pass) I always find myself placing an Eames chair somewhere in the space. I'm not a huge modern furniture person, but Eames chairs are definitely an exception. Their simple elegance and easy attitude seem perfect for any room; I can imagine the plexiglass chairs as fun dining room chairs and the upholstered shell chairs would make great armchairs for the living room. There are always a bunch up on Ebay, and one of these days I'll put away some money and buy one (not one of the $1,000+ ones) and cherish it.

Here are some of my faves:

Chloë Sevigny by Gee

Ever since I saw the Larry Clark film, KIDS, at the ripe age of 13 or 14, I have been inexplicably enamored with Chloë Sevigny. I just adore her. Her style, her attitude, the way she carries herself, her goofy laugh, her hoarding ways. I (and by "I", I mean Opening Ceremony) now present you with the three-part video series "At Home With Chloë Sevigny". Enjoy!
