Choosing Mirrors for Home – style vs practicality, what actually matters?

Olof Meister 1 C

I’ve been trying to refresh a few things in my apartment without doing a full renovation, and somehow I ended up thinking way too much about mirrors. At first I thought I’d just replace one old bathroom mirror, but then I started looking at different styles and realized it’s actually a bigger decision than it seems. While browsing, I came across mirror for makeup vanity and saw everything from simple wall mirrors to more modern LED and decorative options. It reminded me of when I moved into my place and just kept whatever was already installed without really choosing it myself. Now I’m wondering — do people usually pick mirrors mainly for function (lighting, size, usability), or do you think style matters just as much? I feel like I’m overthinking something that should be simple, but at the same time it’s one of those things you look at every single day.
