Personally, I'd install SQL Server first.
On the other hand, I recommend installing them on separate systems.

SQL Server - VS will use an instance if it finds it (and it's newer than it's trying to install) but if you do it afterwards SQL server can remove the VS version and cause problems. I've had this with earlier version of VS, so I always do it that way round now even though they may have fixed it (Hah! Microsoft fix something?) by now.

But the only good reason for installing them on the same system is so you have a local DB for development testing, you should never access the live system from any code under VS!
