What's the one thing connecting all of our favourite rooms on Pinterest?

The answer is not, as you might expect, a particular colour scheme or wallpaper print, or even a scene-stealing piece of furniture: it's actually much more humble than that. From bathrooms to bedrooms, hallways to living rooms, almost every piece of interiors porn that’s grabbed our attention in recent months has featured a simple but instantly impactful accessory in its product line-up: a round mirror.

For an instant update that'll add light and dimension to a room, the round mirror is hard to beat. Plus, it will work in almost any space: it's the perfect complement to minimalist, Scandi-style interiors, but it will also add an element of calm to a more eclectic aesthetic.

It's not for nothing that you've probably noticed a shift in mirror selfie trends, too: where the floor-to-ceiling, vertical outfit shot was once ubiquitous, now you're far more likely to see your favourite influencer photographing their reflection in a rounded mirror. And that, as the_Lion King_would put it, is what we call the circle of life.

Want in on the trend? Thankfully, you can source similar styles to suit a range of budgets, with simple and striking versions available from high street favourites like H&M and Zara Home, as well as online stores like MADE.com and notonthehighstreet. For all the inspiration you'll need before making your purchase, simply scroll through the gallery below...
