Country crooners braved the Texas heat last night in the name of the 2011 CMT Music Awards.
Some of the more notable (and surprisingly fluff-free) looks included those of Jennifer Nettles (who rocked an asymmetrical lace and leather Valentino number), Kristin Chenoweth (who looked feminine in a lace gown wrapped up with a black bow at the waist) and Laura Bell Bundy (who sparkled in a gold-sequined bodice and matching peep-toe platforms).
Attendees who made my "Do not try this at home" list included Sheryl Crow (who wore a white Catherine Malandrino gown with embellishments protruding awkwardly from one hip) and Nicole Kidman (who was wearing a Proenza Schouler dress that looked like a kids' craft project gone awry).
Which country crooner's style is your fave?
