I highly recommend Kaxaml for your XAML editor.  Not only does it look and work great but it also has some very useful features not found on other XAML editors.

I won’t bother listing all of the features that you can read about here, but my favorites are Intellisense support (with code completion!), snippets including a generous collection of simple control styles and the ability to create and save your own, drag and drop, a beautiful color picker, and a XAML scrubber.

With other XAML editors, I thought, “what’s the point? Just use the designer in Visual Studio.”  But Kaxaml is one tool that I will use first to build and customize my UIs–largely due to its snippets, colorpicker and ease of use.  (I don’t use Blend.)
