Editor's Picks: Stylish Desk Chairs

When my partner and I moved in together, I only had one rule: she had to get rid of her netted, ergonomic desk chair. While I understand the need for back support, my background in design writing won out. I couldn't stomach the thought of having a piece of furniture that so extremely favored function over form in our beautiful city apartment.

As I scoured the internet for a more stylish alternative, I became even more disillusioned by the desk chair options. Anything comfortable enough to offer 8 hours of lumbar support had the chicness quotient of the average teenage boy's bedroom, while anything design-led was basically a glorified dining chair. That's why I was elated when I finally came across Kelly Clarkson's Louise Velvet Modern Task Chair.

Available in 12 Colors

Kelly Clarkson Home Louise Velvet Modern Task Chair

This mid-century modern desk chair has a stylishly curved shape and ultra-functional swivel capability. It is upholstered in premium velvet so it will be comfortable against the skin throughout your work day.

Though I previously wouldn't have known that Kelly Clarkson's Wayfair collection is one of the best places to buy office chairs, now I can't imagine getting one anywhere else. The combination of a great price with a beautiful design and comfort is too good to pass up.

Though I haven't yet seen anything as effective as Kelly Clarkson's desk chairs, these pieces all caught my eye. Many of them have swivel-capability, making them great alternatives if you're looking for something similar but a little bit different.
