The Art of Living: great kitchen/bar stools

I love meeting my new clients in the city for the first time. Especially when they are fun, sweet and fabulous! 
Yesterday, I met my new beautiful client, Dina and we chatted on and on and realized that in NYC sometimes there is just no place for a dining table (that so won't fly with me...love to entertain)!
 However, for the most part, all I have to search for when looking for seating options are bar stools. The name 'bar stool' for some reason just gives me the jitters....I am not in love with them. So, in search for the perfect bar stools, I found a few that changed my perspective.
Now that I have found these cool and sophisticated stools, I am so very into them. 
These fabulous pair were picked out by W + R for the Ritz Carlton. I worked on this project and let me tell you, its breathtaking! 
These are incredibly gorgeous white with yellowish green seating. I love them.

I just posted about my kitchen island stools on my blog yesterday. They are the Emeco Hudson stools designed by Philippe Starck. I needed something wipeable with three kids. Love all the options you posted, particularly the lucite ones.

These are so chic! I find barstools incredible difficult to find. We have two in the kitchen and they are used so often, they must be comfortable... I like ones with a back for certain and arms even, but ours need to be replaced, and I'm having the worst time trying to locate a great pair... if I didn't need a back, I would want these :)

Hello??? Lucite upholstered bar stools? Love both styles.

If they don't have a dining table definitely go with stools with a back!
