I'm trying to pick a mirror for my bathroom, where all the ceiling lights are 5000K. I've found some mirrors with 5500K lights, but I'm concerned if that slight difference will really matter, especially since I'm not a fan of the 5000K look. Is it worth stressing over the 5000K versus 5500K in terms of lighting?

I totally get your dilemma! Personally, I prefer warmer lighting around 2700K because 5000K can be really harsh, especially in small spaces like bathrooms. But if you’re looking for true color representation, 5000K is better for that. But really, if the mirror fits your style, I say go for it! You can always switch out the bulbs later if it really bothers you.
Honestly, I think you're overthinking it. A difference of 500K isn't a huge deal unless you're super picky about colors. If you like the mirror, go for it! Plus, having the ceiling lights at 5000K should balance it out enough. You might not even notice the difference! Just get a mirror that you love.
