Levoit Air Purifier

$80, was $100

Though t's a bit of a bigger purchase, having an air purifier like this one at home is a super smart investment, especially if you are prone to environmental allergies (or just want to keep your place smelling fresh and clean). This compact model comes complete with a HEPA-grade filter that captures smoke, dust, dander, and more up to 1,095 square feet of space.

Prior to buying this clothing rack, I had a larger one that featured three shelves and matched my former office's aesthetic. Unfortunately, it was damaged when we moved to our current apartment, so I took it as a sign that I needed to downsize.

After doing a ton of research on Amazon, I came across my current clothing rack — a simple, yet aesthetically-pleasing design that would match my white and gold desk perfectly!

Besides that, this clothing rack makes it 10x easier for me to wash clothes because I'm able to truly see what I want to wear for the next week or so. If you would've taken a look at my closet before I decided to find this more organized solution, you honestly would've screamed. There were clothes, shoes, and accessories covering every inch of it...to the point I'd often get overwhelmed by own my stuff. That used to make laundry day a pain in the butt, but I've put that behind me with this clothing rack!

But aside from the aesthetic, more obvious functionality, and the price (let's be real), the cute little features are truly what sold me on it more than anything. Let's get into the features and how they help me truly keep it together during laundry day.

My Favorite Features on Amazon Clothing Rack

Side Hooks

My hat obsession is real, so the first thing I knew I needed in a clothing rack is an area to store the ones I typically reach for on a routine basis. Though this clothing rack doesn't have built-in shelves on the side, it does feature two hooks that you can hang your lightweight coats, bags, or hats on.

Depending on my mood, I alternate between which of them I'll hang on the hooks. My goal is to never place more than 50 pounds on each hook, so if I have a coat on one side, I'll keep a hat and a bag on the other hook. Organization aside, with these hooks, I don't have to scramble to look for the coat I've been wearing regularly when I can easily see it hanging on the clothing rack.

Though it's under $30, the hooks on the clothing rack are pretty sturdy and haven't popped off in the year I've had it.

Sturdiness level: 5 out of 5

Two Anti-Slip Beads

My former clothing rack didn't have anti-slip beads ,so I'm going to be 100% honest when I say this: I don't think they really help me minimize the chaos of laundry day. They're nice if you're afraid your clothes are going to slide up and down your clothing rack, but I don't feel like they do anything that's groundbreaking.

Rating: 2 out of 5

Bottom Shelf

This clothing rack only has one shelf, so I use it to home the heels I tend to wear the most. I actually have a separate shoe rack that stores my sneakers and sandals, but it was mandatary to have something with a bit of extra storage — I can't help it that Carrie Bradshaw taught me how to love a shoe! Jokes aside, I'd say that the wire port of the bottom shelf isn't as sturdy as what I'm used to, but it's ability to hold platform heels upright and well definitely says a lot.

Before I actually started placing my overflow of shoes here, I used the bottom shelf as a place to store my dirty clothes so I'd know what needed to be washed. I'd fold them so they weren't thrown haphazardly in my laundry basket so I could see what was being washed in case I wanted to do an outfit repeat (no judgement!).

Sywhitta Clothing Rack on Wheels

Overall, I think this is a great clothing rack that budget and space-friendly! It's not going to give you all the features that a more expensive one will, but don't count it out! It'll help you keep track of your favorite clothes and accessories while making laundry day less chaotic.

1. Raymond

Raymond is a strong name of Old French and Old German origin that means "counsel protection" or "hand of advice," symbolizing wisdom and guidance.

It evolved from the medieval "Raimund" and "Raginmund" into its familiar anglicized form. Then, it became the 15th most popular boy name in the United States during the 1920s, according to the Social Security Administration (SSA). Today, Raymond still feels distinguished yet warm and approachable.

2. Gladys

If you're searching for a name that blends vintage charm with regal flair, you can't go wrong with Gladys. Welsh in origin, it derives from "Gwladus" or "Gwladys," meaning "princess" or "ruler."

In the 1920s, it was even the 31st most popular girl's name, gracing a total of 72,561 little ones. While it's become relatively rare today, Gladys has an undeniable elegance that would help your newest addition stand out.

3. Ralph

Ralph became the 25th most common boy's name in the 1920s, perhaps because of its unexpected edge.

Scandinavian in origin, this name actually means "wolf counsel." It was introduced to England before the Middle Ages and later evolved into the French "Raulf" after the Norman Conquest. Ralph has a rich history and rugged strength that make it fit for a future leader.

4. Betty

As a diminutive of Elizabeth, Betty means "oath of God" and is bursting with both strength and sweetness. That's why it reigned as the 4th most popular girl's name of the roaring '20s. Plus, this moniker was donned by icons like actress Betty White and First Lady Betty Ford.

Despite once being considered a go-to, Betty has become quite rare, so it's a great option for those who want a classic and lively name for their baby girl.

5. Ernest

With German roots, Ernest means "serious" and "vigorous," reflecting a young boy with a steadfast and determined nature. It's most famously associated with Ernest Hemingway, and during the 1920s, it was the 29th most popular name, being given to 53,653 babies.

Ernest has a classic sound, meaningful origins, and the adorable nickname possibility of "Ernie," which makes it primed for a return among modern parents.

6. Doris

Doris is Greek in origin, meaning "gift," and is linked to the sea nymph Doris in Greek mythology. Moreover, this name traces back to the Dorian people, an ancient Greek tribe.

Back in the 1920s, Doris ranked as the 8th most popular girl's name, thanks in part to Hollywood star Doris Day. Some might say that, with its soft sound and connection to the ocean, this pick is ready to make waves again.

7. Walter

Derived from the Old High German "Walthari," Walter means "commander of the army," and any boy with this moniker is destined to be a strong leader.

Walter was the 16th most popular boy's name of the 1920s, being given to 119,810 babies over the decade. With its old-world charm and heroic meaning, this choice stands the test of time.

8. Ruth

Lastly, Ruth has Hebrew roots, meaning "friend," and biblical significance since it was the name of King David's great-grandmother. As one of the few women in the Bible with a book named after her, Ruth embodies devotion, love, and strength.

Parents during the 1920s seemed to agree as well because Ruth ranked as the 6th most popular name, donned by 218,521 baby girls born that decade.
