Choose a bathroom mirror that is proportionate to your vanity. As a rule of thumb, the mirror should be a few inches smaller in width than your vanity to ensure a balanced look. Consider the height as well, making sure the top of the mirror is 5-10 inches above eye level for optimal visibility. Functional needs and design style also play roles; for example, opt for a larger mirror if you require more reflection or prefer a more open feel.
