INTRODUCING THE NEW SWAROVSKI FALL COLLECTION 2018
This fall Swarovski invites women to express their individuality with style and tell MY STORY after all, nothing says a style story better than jewelry, watches and accessories. There are endless ways to sparkle with the coveted and game-changing Swarovski Remix Collection brimming with a rich variety of strands that can be easily combined to create seemingly endless combinations of bracelets, necklaces, and strandages. The innovative magnetic feature allows for customization so women can spread their sparkle wherever they go and make the world just that little more brilliant.
Swarovski’s Creative Director Nathalie Colin says of the new collection: “Jewelry is an expression of our individual personality, our style and taste. It is very personal and can therefore give a strong identity to every single look. At Swarovski we believe in empowering women to express themselves through our jewelry, to shine brightly and let their sparkle light up the world all day. With the Swarovski Remix Collection, every woman can follow her mood of the day, and create the jewel that best illustrate who she is. Sparkle meets the ultimate in versatility through glittering letters, birthstones and symbol charms to offer women a palette of options to create one-of-a-kind statements of style and offer seemingly endless ways to sparkle all day, every day.”

Mix and match the collection to create a piece of jewelry that nobody else has and easily adapt it anytime to the mood or occasion. Channel cool romantic, vintage glam, and sparkling elegance styles with chic and elegant combinations that take you from day to night.

There is a bright new line added into the mix this season with easy to clip on Swarovski Remix Charms in the form of Swarovski crystal pavé letters, colorful birthstones, and shimmering symbols.
Spell it out and tell your story with alphabet letters, ideal for those who love the more minimalist style with maximum meaning. Plated in rhodium for luxe appeal, dazzling initials shine brightly in clear Swarovski crystal pavé, give any outfit a personal touch, and make brilliant gifts.

It’s all about the finer details with the beautifully crafted birthstone Swarovski Remix Charms. Every month of the year is represented by a beautiful birthstone, each with its own meaning. The reverse of each piece features the Swan logo and glittering Swarovski crystal pavé, while the eye-catching front brings dazzling pops of color to everyday looks and make thoughtful gifts that will stand the test of time.
Sentimental and symbolic jewelry is taking center stage. Swarovski offers a shining array of versatile symbols that are beautifully finished on both sides to express as well as protect oneself, including the evil eye, hamsa hand, swan, moon, and star.
The Swarovski Remix Collection celebrates diversity with brilliantly versatile designs that raise the style stakes this season and empower women to shine bright and share their sparkle with the world.

Three Easy and Fun Recipes for #MAYAHotcakeArt
Everyone loves eating hotcakes for breakfast (and even for lunch and dinner!), but MAYA Hotcakes are so easy to make, preparing them can be as much fun as eating them. With a little imagination and a few additional ingredients that you can find at home, you can quickly transform your typical breakfast staple into art, from animal shapes and birthday cakes!
Get ready to add more fun and flavor to your hotcakes with #MAYAHotcakeArt with these three quick and super simple ideas, then feel free to dream up your own designs! With MAYA, your hotcakes will be mouth-watering and delicious, no matter how you prepare them!
I LOVE YOU Hotcakes
These hotcakes are the most delicious way to send a message to your loved ones—best of all, they can eat them up after as well!
Whip up the MAYA Hotcake Mix and pour the batter in a squeeze bottle.On a non-stick pan, draw the reverse shape of the letters of your message with the squeeze bottle. (Make sure it is reverse so that it reads right side up when you flip the hotcake.)Put the pan on an open stove and wait for the hotcake batter to start bubbling. When bubbling stops, flip the pancake with a flat spatula.Arrange the letters accordingly. Garnish with additional toppings for decorations and extra flavor.



BEAR-Y CUTE Hotcakes
There are so many animals that you can make out of hotcakes, but these bears are always a fan favorite.
Use MAYA Hotcake Mix and cook different-sized hotcakes to make the head, ears, and/or body.Put the hotcakes together on the plate. Use chocolate syrup / spread and additional fruits to draw a face of the bear, and other details.

BIRTHDAY CAKE Hotcakes
Celebrate your own way by reinventing the typical cake, and adding your own toppings!
Whip up the MAYA Hotcake Mix and add candy sprinkles to the batter. Cook five MAYA hotcakes and stack them together. Add a thin layer of cream cheese in between each hotcake as you stack them up. Put a topping of whipped cream on top of the stack, and pour candy sprinkles over the stack of hotcakes. Finish off with a dusting of confectioner’s sugar.
