I do love the Ralph Lauren 'Poolside Floral' fabric. Ceylon et Cie had some chairs in their shop with this fabric and when I saw it on eBay I just had to have it for my chair. I do love blue and white porcelain and I thought this fabric was a modern twist on the idea.

Too bad I have too many chairs and not enough space. My husband had issued a moratorium on bringing home any furniture that is not free. I am loving this Adah Chair from Pier 1:



And it's on sale! It is so lovely, with that 'aged' patina. Sniff. Why do we always want what we can't have?
