Trays are such a great way to create beautiful little vignettes in your home. They serve as a vehicle for happy hour cocktails, a base for coffee table styling of candles, book stacks and blooms, a Sunday morning breakfast in bed and even a home for...
At the top of my list of chores that make me want to throw a temper tantrum? Cleaning grout. Oh, the grout. And we have a LOT of it in our home. Don't get me wrong, I love our subway tile in the shower and our hexagon Carrara marble floor tile, but I pout a bit when it comes time to shine it up. You with me? Well, it won't clean itself, so arm yourself with one of these methods to make your life a little easier! Bleach Foam Spray Give yourself a head start before you bust out the...
I'm a firm believer that some of the most important items in a woman's beauty arsenal are the ones that don't actually cost all that much. We can't live without our beauty splurges of course, but more often than not it's the little tools that help pull it all together—from...
Her vision was to make her guests feel like they walked into a vintage Christian Dior perfume advertisement, and after spending some serious quality time with these gorgeous images from Christian Oth Studio, I think it's safe to say this stunning Bride succeeded.

I think it goes without saying that I enjoy a glass of bubbly. And I also adore a good snow day. So when you bring them together? I'm the happiest girl in the land. When there is a storm forecasted, we like to put out a bucket to collect fresh snow to use as a little cocktail topper, turning a standard champagne cocktail into a the most sophisticated form of slushy. xo, Abby Capalbo...

When I first moved to Boston from Tennessee, I had this adorable herringbone coat I though would take me stylishly through the long New England winter. Oh my goodness, was I wrong. That first winter (one of the worst on record, btw), I learned SO much about layering and the importance of good winter gear. So if you are headed for a cozy getaway, here are some of my tried and true go to items. xo, Abby...
I've been following the sister-duo behind A Piece of Toast longer than I can remember. We first went Behind the Blog with Molly and Sally on SMP Living, and then gushed for weeks once Sally's...
It isn't often we hear sweet sentiments straight form the Groom, so when we do you know we're going to gush over every single word. Reason being? It's like a love letter originally intended for his sweetheart, but we're the luck ones who get to share in the spotlight. Such was the case with this pretty lil' celebration and we've got it all a la Leah Vis Photography in...
There is no denying it, a snow day and a warm cup of cocoa basically go hand in hand. Or mitten in mitten, I suppose. But you know what's so great about being an adult? You can take that standard cup of hot chocolate and turn it into a toddy of sorts, instantly bringing out the inner kid in all of your guests.
If there is one thing we love here at SMP, it's a reason to celebrate. Think drop-dead gorgeous weddings, glittery gold anything and, of course, the Jstyle Weddings Bridal Event happening on April 10, 2016 at The Westin Cleveland Downtown. It's the city's most intimate bridal experience, complete with yummy treats, insanely gorgeous inspiration and a never-ending lineup of seriously talented wedding experts. It's going to be sooo awesome.
I may be a little bit biased (some of my fondest memories of living in Nashville take place at Cheekwood Botanical Garden), but this classic affair is the perfect Southern wedding. From the Bride's stunning Modern Trousseau gown and her bridesmaids' pretty Jenny Yoo dresses to the elegant ...
One thing we LOVE about Carrie & Steve's Big Day? The fact that they used only their favorite local vendors. That's right, it's the ultimate small business lovefest and we're smitten with every single second of it. Thanks to Whim Events, Mayflour Cake & Confections, Gus And Ruby...
