27 Bathroom Mirror Ideas for Every Style

For every style, shape, and size.

The best bathroom mirror ideas deliver on aesthetics and practicality. After all, bathroom mirrors always let you know when there's something green stuck in your teeth and they never judge you for staring. Seriously, though, they can help you achieve your loftiest bathroom design goals. The right bathroom mirror can contribute a sense of spaciousness, enhance the natural light (or play the role of a window if there isn't one), and elevate the walls. They're a quick and cost-effective way to make a dated space feel fresh too.

Compared with other decorative items like sofas and light fixtures, bathroom mirrors seem to be oblivious to passing trends. Whether square or oval, rimless or ornately framed, a bathroom mirror is timeless when you pair it with complementary design elements and accessories. Our only stipulation: Be sure to choose one made of tempered glass, which is treated to resist cracking that could happen due to sharp changes in temperature (like your steamy shower on an otherwise chilly winter morning) or accidental bumps.

The best bathroom mirror ideas can give a space personality all on their own. You don't need to worry about matching the vanity or shower fixture finishes; in fact, your bathroom mirror doesn't have to match anything else in the room if you don't want it to. So let's all take a good, hard look at these 28 bathroom mirror ideas. You'll see how easily they can elevate any space, no matter what size, shape, style, or budget you're working with.
