Changing room mirrors - aren't they just the worst thing ever?

You'd think they'd make them more flattering, enhancing your appearance and enticing you to buy more clothes. But no, those changing room mirrors seem to highlight every lump and bump.... and head for the nearest diet club - or doughnut!

I think Wallis are the biggest culprits; anywhere worse?

When will those shops understand that if they had magic mirrors and we looked all tanned and celulite free then we would buy more.

Exactly!

remember communal changing rooms from the '80s?

hell in a shopping centre

omg yes they were quite dreadful (and always had an odour of smelly feet about them!!) Yes it was a pointless excersise becuase if you were not trying so desperately to put your prospective new purchase on over your existing clothing .. you were trying to find out where you actually were in the wall to wall - ceiling to ceiling keleidoscope effect in front of your very eyes mirrors!!! lol. Only saving grace was the fact the lighting was so poor - not now, feels like 1000 watt bulbs lighting up the tiny cubicle.. and whose idea was it ever to put that movable mirror that shows you from behind ..

Have you tried the changing rooms in H&M???

A real boost to the confidence.
Soft lighting and the mirrors make you lose at least 1 dress size.
