CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/894,892, filed May 5, 2013, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/688,789, filed May 18, 2012, U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/688,791, filed May 18, 2012 and U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/688,792, filed May 18, 2012, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. 
    
    
     BACKGROUND 
     Field of the Application 
     The disclosure is directed to the field of jewelry and accessory organization, security and display. More specifically the disclosure is directed to a collapsible, foldable accessory organization, with security features and detachable transportation system. 
     Background of the Disclosure 
     Devices have long existed for storage of jewelry and accessories. Typically these devices consist of jewelry boxes which are rigid and manufactured of opaque material with limited segregated storage space and which pose the problem of not being able to readily visually identify the pieces of jewelry one is looking for due to pieces being stacked one on top of the other in a disorganized form. Further due to the rigid nature of the jewelry box, it may not be collapsed for easy transportation or storage. 
     Many owners of jewelry and accessories travel from one location to another for business or personal purposes and bring the jewelry along with them on these trips. To date, the packing, unpacking and safe storage of these jewelry and accessories has been a time consuming and tedious process as multiple items of different types such as necklaces, bracelets, earrings, watches, brooches, hair/clothing accessories and the like are individually manipulated. These items get tangled together and disorganized as well as may fall out of the currently available jewelry organization devices during travelling. 
     Other jewelry storage devices currently existing allow for organization of the jewelry in a flexible, hanging device with pockets for easy viewing and storage of jewelry but these devices do not allow for storing the jewelry in such a way that it is hidden and not readily visible to intruders entering the premises with the purpose of stealing valuables. Furthermore other flexible foldable jewelry organization and storage devices do not allow for hidden storage of the jewelry/accessories in an organized manner in removable modules which can then be transferred as separate travel totes for transportation with only the jewelry needed for a specific trip stored therein. 
     Therefore, what is needed in the industry is a jewelry/accessory system capable of storing multiple types of accessories in an organized manner, which also can be hidden and not readily visible to individuals targeting jewelry to steal. Further, what is needed is a system with at least one removable module, so that the module can store a desired subset of jewelry on them ready to be removed and transported as a separate travel tote during trips. 
     SUMMARY 
     In certain embodiments, an apparatus for secure accessory organization and transportation includes at least two outer exposed layers, wherein at least one of the outer exposed layers configured to receive one or more accessory display and storage modules, a foldable inner hidden layer disposed within the at least two outer exposed layers and configured to receive one or more travel purses containing organized sets of accessories, and one or more foldable, compact display and storage containers configured to receive one or more display and storage modules or one or more accessory items and configured to be stored securely on the inner hidden layer so that the storage containers and/or accessory items are not readily visible to an observer. 
     In certain embodiments, a method for making an apparatus for secure accessory organization and transportation includes obtaining desired materials, cutting materials into one or more pre-defined shapes, wherein the one or more pre-defined shapes include an inner hidden layer and one or more outer layers, coupling an inner hidden layer within one or more outer layers, and coupling connectors to the inner hidden layer and at least one of the one or more outer layers. 
     In certain embodiments, an apparatus for secure accessory organization and transportation includes means for obtaining desired materials, means for cutting materials into one or more pre-defined shapes, wherein the one or more pre-defined shapes include an inner hidden layer and one or more outer layers, means for coupling an inner hidden layer within one or more outer layers, and means for coupling connectors to the inner hidden layer and at least one of the one or more outer layers.

     According to certain embodiments, pockets  114  can be configured such that a top opening  118  of pockets  114  can be made of an elastic material which stretches to expand/open pockets  114  and contracts in the closed position so as to keep accessories/jewelry in place in pockets  114  during transportation and prevent jewelry from falling out. Pockets  114  can also be configured with hook and look closures to keep pockets  114  in the closed position. Alternatively, pockets  114  can have a top opening configured with fastening mechanisms such as zips, snap closures, ties, interlocking tabs and slots or any other similar fastening mechanisms to prevent the jewelry/accessories from falling out of pockets  114  during transportation. 
       FIG. 2  illustrates an exemplary front view of an inner hidden layer  206  of an accessory organization, secure storage and transportation system  100  according to certain embodiments. As shown in  FIG. 2 , inner hidden layer  206  can include two opposing fabric layers of the same or different construction and/or color which can be coupled together by sewing, gluing, stapling or any method of fusing the two opposing layers together. Inner hidden layer  206  can be configured such that it is a layer separate from outer exposed dress layer  104  as shown in  FIG. 2  or inner hidden layer  206  can be configured such that it is located on the opposite, inner side of outer exposed dress layer  104 . Inner hidden layer  206  can include a panel made of but not limited to cardboard, plastic sheeting, interfacing or other supporting material which is housed between the two opposing fabric layers and kept in place by stitched seams  220  which keep the two opposing fabric layers coupled to each other. Alternatively seams  220  can be made by sewing, gluing or stapling the two opposing fabric layers together. Such a construction segments inner hidden layer  206  into one or more portions  226  which can give structure to flexible accessory system  100  during folding, allowing each of the one or more segments to be folded into a more compact package for transportation. This type of construction further cushions the jewelry and accessories and reduces the likelihood of their being damaged during storage and transportation. 
     According to certain embodiments, the panel can alternatively be made of polyurethane foam, polyester batting or any other material that can provide the rigidity necessary to allow accessory system  100  to be folded in such a manner as described. Seams  220  separating the portions of inner hidden layer  206  containing the panels can be spaced at vertical intervals  222  of 2 inches apart to facilitate folding. Alternatively, this distance can be varied based on the number and width of portions  226 . 
     Inner hidden layer  206  further can include one or more hook and loop strip(s)  224  coupled to inner hidden layer  206  permanently by sewing, gluing, stapling or any method of fusing hook and loop strip(s)  224  onto inner hidden layer  206 . Alternatively hook and loop strip(s)  224  can be coupled in a removable manner to inner hidden layer  206  by a magnet on both surfaces or any similar method of attachment. Hook and loop strips  224  can be configured to receive a corresponding hook and loop surface located on one or more jewelry dress travel purses (shown in  FIGS. 3, 8, 9 and 10 ) so as to couple the travel purse(s) to inner hidden layer  206 . In this way, any of travel purses  850  (shown in  FIG. 8 ) or  1050  (shown in  FIG. 10 ) containing several pieces of jewelry is stored safely in an inconspicuous manner on hidden layer  206  of accessory system  100 . 
       FIG. 3  illustrates an exemplary front view of inner hidden layer  206  of an accessory organization, secure storage and transportation system  100  with travel purse  850  (as shown in  FIG. 8 ) in an open configuration coupled to it, and another travel purse  850  (as shown in  FIG. 9 ) in a closed configuration coupled to inner hidden layer  206  according to certain embodiments. As shown in  FIG. 3 , one or more travel purses  850  (as shown in  FIG. 8 ) containing jewelry/accessories can be coupled to inner hidden layer  206  of accessory system  100  in a removable manner so as to allow for storage within accessory system  100 . Travel purse(s)  850  can then also be removed and transported separately with all the jewelry stored therein in an organized and easily accessible manner. Travel purse  850  illustrates how the different types of jewelry/accessories can be stored in travel purse  850  in both an open and a closed configuration. 
     In accessory system  100 &#39;s hanging configuration, inner hidden layer  206  and any travel purses stored thereon are not readily visible to an observer. This configuration provides greater security for the pieces of jewelry/accessories stored in travel purse(s)  850  and/or  1050  (shown in  FIG. 10 ) on hidden layer  206  as these pieces will not be readily visible to anyone approaching the location of accessory system  100  for the purpose of stealing jewelry/accessories. Travel purse(s)  850  and/or  1050  and any jewelry stored therein will be hidden on inner hidden layer  206 , located under outer exposed dress layer  104 . Accessory system  104  will thus only give the impression of no more than a small pretty dress hanging on a hanger in the closet. 
       FIG. 4  illustrates an exemplary side view of an accessory organization, secure storage and transportation system  100  according to certain embodiments. As shown in  FIG. 4 , accessory system  100  can be narrow in thickness, measuring approximately 1 inch or less with nothing stored on inner hidden layer  206  and approximately 1 inch or greater with inner hidden layer  206  having one or more travel purses  850 ,  1050  and/or one or more of jewelry tabs  530 ,  630 ,  730  and/or  1130  stored thereon, thus making it substantially 2-dimensional in shape and further bolstering the appearance of just a dress with nothing being stored on its interior. Accessory system  100  from the side view looks substantially flat thereby not making it obvious to an observer that accessory system  100  has hidden interior storage. 
       FIG. 5A  illustrates an exemplary front view of a jewelry earrings, necklaces, and bracelets tab  530  according to certain embodiments. As shown in  FIG. 5A , tab  530  is made of a flexible yet sturdy material layer  536  such as but not limited to felt or velvet. Layer  536  is folded in half so as to allow a proximal end  538  and a distal end  540  of layer  536  to be side-by-side as opposing ends—each end having a corresponding hook and loop closure material thus allowing proximal end  538  to fasten to distal end  540 . Alternatively, other types of closures can be used including ties, interlocking tabs and slots, snap closures, or any other similar closures. This configuration creates a closed loop on tab  530  in which jewelry such as but not limited to bracelets, necklaces or watches can be hung between the inner opposing felt layers  542 . According to certain embodiments, a mesh layer  532  can be coupled to the front side of layer  536  by sewing, gluing, stapling or any method of fusing mesh layer  532  to layer  536  of tab  530 . Mesh layer  532  can be configured in a manner that jewelry such as earrings can be hung off the holes in mesh layer  532 . Tab  530  is thereby configured to carry and store earrings, necklaces, bracelets and the like. Tab  530  can be configured with a total overall length of 2 inches and an overall width of 1 inch. Alternatively, these measurements can be varied in order to suit user need.

Opposing fabric layers  960  (shown in  FIG. 9 ) and  852  can be of the same or different construction and/or color and can be coupled together permanently by sewing, gluing, stapling or any method of fusing the two opposing layers together. Travel purse  850  also can include a panel made of but not limited to cardboard, plastic sheeting, interfacing or other supporting material which can be housed between two opposing fabric layers  852  and  960  in each of section A and section B and kept in place by stitched seams  820  which give travel purse  850  some rigidity and keep opposing fabric layers coupled to each other in such a way as to define at least two distinct portions A and B. Alternatively seams  820  can be made by sewing, gluing or stapling the two opposing fabric layers together. Such a construction segments the inner layer  852  into at least two distinct portions A and B and gives structure to flexible travel purse  850  during folding. This allows each of two or more segments A and B to be folded over each other in travel purse  850 &#39;s closed position (shown in  FIG. 9 ) for storage and transportation. This type of construction further cushions the jewelry and accessories and reduces the likelihood of their being damaged during storage and transportation. 
     According to certain embodiments, the panel can alternatively be made of polyurethane foam, polyester batting or any other material that can provide the rigidity necessary to allow the jewelry system to be folded in such a manner as described. The seams  820  separating section A and section B (at least one of which contains a panel) can be spaced a vertical distance C of one half of an inch apart to facilitate folding. Alternatively, this distance can be varied based on the number of sections like A and B and length of such portions. 
     According to certain embodiments, inner layer  852  can be made of any variety of one or more flexible materials such as—but not limited to—felt, woven fabrics, knit fabrics, non-woven fabrics, leather, artificial leather, vinyl, flexible composites, coated fabrics, or any other similar materials. In addition, inner layer  852  can have an additional mesh layer  858  coupled to the top of inner layer  852  by sewing, gluing, stapling or any method of fusing mesh layer  858  to inner layer  852 . Mesh layer  858  can be configured in a manner that jewelry such as earrings can be hung off the holes in mesh layer  858 . 
     According to certain embodiments, travel purse  850  can further include multiple hook and loop surfaces  854  which allow for coupling of any of jewelry tabs  530 ,  630 ,  730  or  1130  (shown in  FIGS. 11A and 11B ) with a similar hook and loop surface. This way different items of jewelry can be stored on any of jewelry tabs  530 ,  630 ,  730  or  1130  and transferred to travel purse  850 , or  950  (shown in  FIG. 9 ) to be packaged in an organized manner with travel purse  850  then being stored in a hidden manner on inner hidden layer  206  (shown in  FIG. 3 ) of accessory system  100 .
