When you take a shower the water droplets have a greater surface area then simply having the water sit in the tub as it does in a bath. The leads to increased evaporation. With more moisture in the air it is easier for condensation to occur on a cool surface such as a mirror.

Part of the water vapor evaporates and atomizes in the air during bathing, when the water vapor encounters the cold mirror, it will condense into fog.
