1. A floor-length arched mirror to help open up your space while being the perfect spot for a classic OOTD selfie.

Anonymous/Wayfair

Promising review: "I am so very pleased with this mirror. I loved the arched shape of it. I planned on hanging it on the wall, but it is heavy and has a nice tripod stand. It’s trimmed in black; you hardly notice it, but I think that makes it look more expensive." —Frances

Price: $101.99
