There's never a shortage of glitz and glamour at the Country Music Association Awards. This year, of course, is no exception.
While we no longer have any epic Taylor Swift performances to look forward to, the evening is still jam packed with excitement, style, a few awkward Blake Shelton/Miranda Lambert jokes and of course, lots of sparkle.
The CMA Awards always bring a refreshing amount of boldness. Eight-year running host Carrie Underwood shone especially bright in a plunging, peplum gown by Gauri & Nainika, while country's sweetheart Lambert stunned in a form-fitting, black dress and pink-dipped hair.
