Farmhouse Chic Vanity Light
There are some tasks that require strong, direct light, like shaving or applying makeup. And when you need a lot of illumination, vanity lights are a fantastic option since they work best when positioned above your mirror or medicine chest. We’re partial to the Allen + Roth® Hainsbrook vanity light for its farmhouse style and variety of finishes (antique bronze, glossy white and antique pewter).
The inside of this dimmable fixture is painted white, which bounces the light off the metal shade and into your bathroom. The fixture comes with mounting hardware and detailed instructions for easy installation.
When choosing a vanity light to install above a mirror, always consider (and measure) the dimensions of your mirror. This should guide the length of your vanity light. Even then, you’ve got options: Opt for a single bar vanity light for a continuous fixture above your mirror. If you have a double sink set-up, place a separate vanity light over each basin instead of centering a single unit between the two sinks.

Modern Wall Sconce
Alone or paired with another style of bathroom lighting, wall sconces are a quick way to add a unique design element to your space. Wall sconces, which come in a multitude of shapes, sizes, and light configurations, look great installed above or alongside your mirror or medicine cabinet.
The CO-Z Light gold wall sconce is a great example of a fixture that breaks the traditional lighting design mold. An opal glass globe shade sits inside of a brushed brass curve plate. They work well in modern, transitional or Art Deco-inspired spaces. If you’re opting for a pair of sconces on either side of a mirror, look for semi-opaque shades. This ensures that the light will be diffused and won’t blast you with an uncomfortable amount of light every time you flip the switch on.

Statement Chandelier
If you have a freestanding bathtub in your bathroom, then you need a statement-making chandelier or pendant light overhead. This black and satin brass pendant with a geometric cage silhouette is a modern and sophisticated update that's available in three sizes. Use 1-light pendants in a powder room, 3-light pendants in a small bathroom and the 5-light pendant over a tub or centered in a large bathroom.
When you hang a chandelier in a bathroom, you'll need to ensure that's it damp-rated. We also recommend a dimmable light, so that you can turn down the lights when you're trying to relax and unwind after a long day.
