Traditional. Elegant. Transitional. Modern lines. When it comes to choosing the perfect bathroom vanity lighting for your bathroom the choices can be overwhelming.  

But a few key things can help you narrow down just what might work  and what might be the perfect style for you and your space.

Today I am going to share two different looks for lighting in your bathroom - and you will notice that they are both sconces that flank the sides of a mirror.

I am a huge fan of lights on both sides of a vanity mirror as opposed to a bar of lighting above it.

Sconce lighting on the sides of the mirror also helps eliminate shadows when applying makeup and having several in a row makes my symmetry loving heart happy.

#1. Vintage Flair

This bathroom is very vintage in feeling. With marble subway tiles and knotty pine walls and a traditional pedestal sink - I knew that the lighting had to fit the look to be perfect.

Something with a vintage look like a tassel sconce or a French style sconce were a perfect choices. And a tip? Go oversize and bigger for impact if you have the space

#2. Beaded Beauty

Another favorite look is a fixture with simple clean lines but with a twist like a touch of pizazz with a beaded shade.

But there are so many different styles, sizes and looks to choose from. From brassy golds to shabby whites to simple clean chrome. 

Think about the look you want in your bathroom - modern, traditional, on-trend, etc.and choose something that fits the style and that you love.Such as a sconce with a streamlined look:

Maybe a bit more rustic and soft in color and style:
