Pretty Vanities in White

My personal vanity, or as some like to say, "dressing table" is a makeshift vintage sewing table and even though I rarely use it for getting ready in the morning, I still love the idea of it. These pretty, neutral vanities are bathed in light and offer a small refuge before beginning long days where personal time is, most likely, rare.

In case your curious to see what mine looks like, it's posted over here.  I've also posted on other vanities here.  What are your thoughts on vanities?

    You have made it official for me. I must paint my room completely white. I had thought about an orange wall but I think I want to paint my own pieces and display on the wall.

    I love vanities..but whenever I've had one, I don't end up using it and it becomes a place to catch junk.

    Congrats to Jilian!

    I have my Grandmother's old vanity and it is exquisite. Someday, I am going to have it refinished... and perhaps white would be a good choice after seeing these!!

    I had one as a little kid, but I never had room for one once I moved out. I would love to own one again one day. Every woman deserves a place to sit and get ready, even if it's just putting on chapstick.

    I absolutely love the first one and all the light that comes in the room from that window, oh to have a gorgeous vanity table

    #2 is my favorite! i think i would sit there all day looking out the window! lovely!

    i don't have a vanity. i just don't have room. i am tacky and i put my makeup on at the dining room table. it has the best light and lets me spread out my gazillion products. hahahaha

    I quite like the craziness of the "simply grove" pic. It would be nice, really, to have any of these dressing tables. I've got to work on this....

    Somehow I think getting ready at one of these would make me look better in the morning (and I can use the help!)

    The Vanity was once our "Altar"...then it was switched to the toilet tank. Bad move. We need our rightful place back. Well done.
