Dining Chair Matches Made in Heaven
Whether you believe that opposites attract or that alike = like there's no denying that mixing things up a bit makes life more interesting. One may be soft and feminine while the other is sturdy and understated, and it's those contrasts that really make a couple shine. Wait, did you think we were talking romance here? This Valentine's day we thought we would talk about a different type of pairing, and this one is all about the chairs. Mismatched chairs are having, dare we say, a moment, and we're here for it. Here are nine versions that make our hearts sing.
01. A soft and subtle palette and natural wood legs unite these two and a supple leather upper pairs well with the cushioned linen slipper seat for a pair that is relaxed without losing the romantic vibe.
Geller Dining Chair, Target, $120
Clutch Leather Chair, Blu Dot, $550
02. A timeless classic and its hip younger sister. Use the taller Windsor to anchor the arrangement by pairing them at the head of the table, while the lower two-toned chairs flank the table and bring a welcome modern touch.
Harwich High Back Windsor Dining Chair, Target, $80
Balboa Barrel Back Dining Chair, Target, $150 for 2
03. These two are united by a sculptural element while the pretty in pink meets all black color scheme creates just the right amount of contrast.
Racer Dining Chair, Blu Dot $349
Marinn Dining Chair, Lulu and Georgia, $502
04. Classic blue (here's looking at you Pantone) gets a twist with a sunny pop of yellow. We like the idea of using the playful yellow chairs, with their head to toe upholstery at the head of the table while their navy counterparts neatly line the sides.
Neat Dining Chair, Blu Dot, $450
Windsor Dining Chair, Target, $180 for 2
05. Lucite and velvet harken back to the Art Deco era while slim brass legs and a clean profile modernize the silhouette creating the perfect recipe for subtle glam.

Mid-Century Upholstered Dining Chair, West Elm, $299
06. Natural wood pops against its deep navy counterpart while the vertical lines of the chair backs play nicely together.

Carlisle High Back Dining Chair, Target, $110 for 2
7. An industrial metal chair in a glamorous gold finish meets a quirky-cute pink chair reminiscent of a lollipop. The gold hardware and blush tone make this pair feminine with a bit of edge (which just so happens to be how I define my personal style.)
High Back Metal Dining Chair Gold, Target, $99.99
Ingrid Dining Chair, West Elm, $274
8. A simple wooden chair adorned with painted flowers and a laid back rattan chair where the beauty is in all the details makes for a sweet little bohemian pair.
Painted Floral Wood Chair, Urban Outfitters, $249

9. Modern teak with beautiful lines and a show wood leather chair create a duo that emphasizes the warm tones of the wood and leather, perfect for a space with a natural aesthetic.
