SMP Living Spotlight!

Happy Friday, SMPers. We're putting a tiny pause on the real wedding pretty to spotlight our faves from this week on Living. You know...our super amazing sister site devoted to all things before and after "I do". With everything from bridal showers to home tours to totally do-able DIYs, this is one weekly round-up you don't want to miss. So let's stop and take a peek, shall we?

You know her as the founder and editor of Rue Magazine, but Crystal Gentilello is also an oh-so-gorgeous bride-to-be. She shared her stunning bridal shower pics with SMP Living, and they're every bit as pretty as you'd expect. See all the pink and gold party goodness right here.

I think we can all agree that Paloma Contreras is one of the sweetest style mavens in the blogosphere. So when she gave us a look inside her beautiful home this week, you better believe we were giddy as can be. And as if that weren't enough, Living also went behind her wildly popular blog, La Dolce Vita, to find out just what makes Paloma tick.

You know it wouldn't be a week on Living without whipping up an awesome DIY! And what better treat to craft than the statement accessory of the summer: the bauble necklace. It's way easier than you'd think, and you can get the full how-to right here.
