Make a statement with a fresh take on your home’s mirrors. Gone are the day when our mirrors had to be standard geometric shapes, (circles, squares, and rectangles). Now, mirrors are an added piece of art that reflects your personality through asymmetric shapes, sculptural frames, and unique lighting.

But, finding the perfect mirror to fit your personality (or Instagram aesthetic) can also fit within any budget. Here are some unique and playful mirrors for any Instagram selfie across three price brackets.

Save: Tufted Frame Mirror from Superbalist

Remember when everyone on TikTok was adding foam to their mirrors to mimic the Ettore Sottsas Ultrafragola mirror? Well, why not add a softness to your mirror’s edge via this tufted frame? Yes rug tufting as a hobby blew up on social media in the past year, but a tufted mirror will bring a sense of modern whimsy to your space.
