Body Forms by Alessa
If getting organized is topping your list of resolutions for 2008, then I suggest that you start with your accessories. Why accessories? Well because these body forms as accessory holders by Alessa de Rivera are just too cute to resist!
Made out of metal and paper mache, not only are they works of art, they serve a practical purpose too! According to Alessa, "I've always wanted to have something that could hold my accessories...There's a lot of jewelry designers coming in and out right? It's like everyday there's a new bling being introduced, but we can't find anything in the market that serves to hold those blings. So i figured why not make one?"
She explains that she got into body forms since their family business makes these for export. What makes her body forms different from their export pieces is that, "I guess most of our body form items are for visuals and not much for function". With that in mind, she married the two, and the result was not only visually appealing, but highly functional too!

Alessa explains further, "My Cinderella Series (Margaux, Angela, and Althea) can hold a lot of earrings, bracelets and necklaces. The skirt itself can hold a lot of your stud earrings and dangling ones. The edge of the skirt has loops where in you can hang those earrings. My tallest piece is Vanessa while the smallest (and the most ideal for a small dresser) is Alexise.
