I love bright colors to get me going for my workout. Add a catchy tank, and it's a perfect match. These tights are fun and comfortable. Definitely great for any activity! They are also a great price, so hurry before they're gone.

This tank is a great motivator to push through that final run. You just gotta don't stop get it, get it, ya know? Anyways, paired with the always great and comfortable Pink leggings, and you've got a great outfit duo.

Mississippi Mud Brownies

IT'S OUR FIRST EVER FOOD POST! NomNomNomNom. Just in time for Father's Day, we are sharing the recipe for these delicious Mississippi Mud Brownies. The recipe is from my boyfriend's mom, who originally got it from an old cookbook, but we are sharing it with you all today. 

You'll Need:

Brownies

2 Sticks of Margarine
5 1/2 Tablespoons of Cocoa

1 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour

2 Cups Granulated Sugar

4 Eggs (I used egg beaters)

1 Teaspoon Vanilla

Frosting

1 Stick of Margarine

3 Tablespoons of Cocoa

1/3 Cup 2% Milk

1 Teaspoon Vanilla

Powdered Sugar 

(amount varies depending on preferred consistency)

-Preheat Oven to 350 degrees-

In a medium saucepan, melt margarine and cocoa. 

Once it's well blended, let it cool.

Mix flour and sugar together.

Slowly pour in the melted chocolate/butter and mix.

 

Beat in the eggs (or egg beaters) one at a time. Blend well after each egg is added. Next fold in the vanilla.

Once the mixture is silky smooth, pour into a brownie pan and bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes. Keep a close eye on them, you don't want to over bake them!  

Now for the good stuff...frosting. 

In a medium saucepan, bring margarine, cocoa, and milk to a boil. Remove from heat.

Add in the vanilla and powdered sugar. Less is more with the powdered sugar. It's easy to add an extra scoop; you can't exactly scoop it back out...

The consistency is totally up to you, but I like a decently sturdy frosting that won't run like crazy. I put in the sugar in around 1/2 cup intervals until I was satisfied. It should be spreadable, not runny.

Use a toothpick to check the brownies. If it comes out clean, you are good to go. If they are still a little sticky on top, that's okay! As they cool, they will firm up more. 

Once the brownies are cool to the touch, spread the frosting over the entire pan. Try to refrain from eating it all before you ice the brownies. It's difficult though. 

The finished product is a perfectly fluffy and chewy brownie that is to die for. You will need plenty of milk on hand because these babies are rich. With Father's Day around the corner, it's a perfect opportunity to whip some up for your Dad!

One Dress, Two Ways

One Coral Dress. Two Different Styles. One Great Post. 

Madison's Outfit Details: Dress-Target, Vest-Target, Sandals-Target (Similar Here), Watch- Fossil, Necklace-Kendra Scott

Danielle's Outfit Details: Dress-Target, Shoes- G by Guess

Danielle & I have the tendency to own the same outfits. Without even trying, we buy the same things. The dress is a prime example. We both went to target separately, yet somehow bought the EXACT SAME DRESSES (as in plural not just this one). Even though we buy the same things, we do have a tendency to put a different spin on them.

 

Danielle dressed her look up, but still kept it simple. She wore this dress with a cute pair of wedges making it perfect for a nice dinner or night out on the town. 

Madison kept her look causal and fun. A denim vest and sandals helped to keep this look down-to-earth and a great look for a day out and about. 

  

So which look do you prefer? Pretty & Proper or Casual & Cool. Let us know in the comments below.

Workout Wear Faves Part 1

Over here at Everything Glitters, we've been trying to get our health on. From following the Tone It Up Bikini Series to attempting the Kayla Istines Bikini Body Guide (it's way harder than it looks), we've been getting fit. Part of this journey has included gearing up with some new workout faves because you work harder in cute clothes, right? Get all the details (including links to these products) below!



Danielle's Look: Top-Walmart, Sports Bra-Walmart, Leggings- Walmart, Shoes- Similar Here



Madison's Look: Top- Nike, Sports Bra-Victoria's Secret, Shorts- Under Armour, Shoes-ASICS



These Walmart finds will have you looking stylin' at the gym without busting your budget. They also have plenty of stretch and movement, so you can hit every yoga move or run to your hearts content no problem. We own these tanks in multiple colors and find ourselves snagging new items every time we stop in. You should seriously check it out.



This sports bra is honestly the greatest supporting bra ever. The VS line does not mess around. I swear by them. This Nike top is also my new favorite. It is so comfortable and the cut is not your typical style. These shorts are also great. I own them in multiple colors and wear them all the time.



We hope some of our first round of workout favorites turn into some of your favorites too. Have any workout plans we should check out or must have styles you swear by? Let us know in the comments below!
