Neon Fix
Carrie Underwood in a plunging coral peplum gown.
Underwood, who’s returning to co-host this year with Brad Paisley, wore a plunging coral gown with a peplum by Indian- based designers Gauri & Nainika—which further accented her tiny waist. She finished off the look with drop earrings and some statement bling on her upper ear—a big trend in jewelry right now.
Tonight’s the night: It’s the 49th Annual Country Music Association Awards, and all our favorite country superstars (and then some!) are bringing their fashion A-game on the red carpet.

Jewel in a sparkling mini dress with illusion neckline.
Jewel looked like a skater girl—an ice skater girl, that is!—in a super short, super sparkly mini dress and matching clutch. An illusion neckline kept everything in place up top. If you’ve got it, flaunt it…
Steven Tyler in a printed blazer, silk shirt, and leather pants.
Aerosmith rock god Steven Tyler showed up, looking his usual mix of ultra fancy yet disheveled. Beneath his printed dinner jacket, he wore a silky-looking champagne shirt and flared leather pants. He accessorized with piles of rings, necklaces, and bracelets, plus some rainbow colored hair.
Trisha Yearwood (with Garth Brooks) in a silver and champagne gown.
Country couple Trisha Yearwood and Garth Brooks dressed black tie for the evening, with Yearwood looking elegant in a champagne-colored gown with silver foil detailing and dark eye makeup. Brooks looked sharp in a classic black tux and his trusty 10-gallon hat. This is the CMAs, after all!
Erika Christensen in a blue, one shouldered gown with ruffles by Gauri & Nainika.
The actress wore a draped, one shouldered gown in cobalt blue by Gauri & Nainika, paired with a high topknot hairstyle and a black box clutch. Ruffles were huge on the runway this season, and will be everywhere come spring. Christensen is one step ahead!
Kellie Pickler in a strapless, navy blue ballgown.
Pickler went for a moody princess look, wearing a strapless navy gown with plunging neckline and full ball skirt. The country singer will soon star in her own CMT reality show, aptly titled I Love Kellie Pickler, alongside her husband Kyle Jacob
Shawn Booth and Kaitlyn Bristowe in a blue suit and color block and printed maxi dress.
The most recent couple to result from The Bachelorette wore mismatched looks on the CMAs red carpet. Booth sported a bright blue suit with a black shirt, while his fiancee Kaitlyn had on a rather casual maxi dress with a black top and printed skirt. These two don’t seem to have yet mastered the fine art of couple’s dressing!
Megan Rapinoe in a black velvet blazer, bowtie, and slacks.
This professional soccer player knows how to rock a suit. Rapinoe looked extra sharp in a velvet blazer (VERY fall 2015!) with a white shirt underneath and a cute bowtie tied at the collar. It was a playful addition to an outfit that could have otherwise been to an outfit that could have otherwise been a bit dull.
Jennifer Nettles in a dusty pink gown with beading and illusion panels.
The Sugarland singer stood out from the rest in a perfectly tailored, dusty pink gown. The top is covered in beaded embroidery, which shimmered when the light hit it. Though the dress’s neckline appears to be fairly scandalous, everything was held in place with the help of an illusion panel extending from the waist up
