Country Music's biggest stars walked the red carpet on Wednesday for the 47th Annual CMA Awards, and the fashions did not disappoint! Our best-dressed female stars wore a range of embellished neutrals, bold shapes in bright colors, and dramatic black dresses with deep necklines - with a healthy dose of sparkle across the board! Inspired by our favorites, here are 5 ways to embrace the trends seen at the CMAs on a real gal's budget:
Embellished Nudes: Carrie Underwood, Kacey Musgraves, and Kimberly Perry dressed in neutral colors made glam with floral appliqués, beading, and gorgeous texture. Get the look with a flirty floral dress in a soft ivory hue - perfect for a party with heels, or paired with tights and boots.

Geometric Red: Taylor Swift takes her bold red dress to the next level with sharp edges off the shoulder and bateau neckline. A backless maxi dress mimics the angular lines of Taylor's dress in a subtle way; the deep red commands attention!

Daring Black: Hillary Scott of Lady Antebellum and Kellie Pickler look sharp in black, but their daring necklines make an even bigger statement. Try the trend with a dress that plays with different textures, like black sequins on top and a matte black on the bottom.

Sequins and V-necks: Miranda Lambert and Jennifer Nettles sparkle in sequins from head to toe. These dresses are sure to bring back the v-neck style! I'm loving this flattering silhouette on cocktail dresses that are perfect for the holidays.

Having Fun with Strapless: Little Big Town's Karen Fairchild and Kimberly Schlapman wore party strapless dresses. Karen's bright orange brightened up the night, and Kimberly's gold and sequin embellished top and poofy black skirt stood out from the sleek dresses. Go long with a floor-length maxi to get these va-va-voom looks for less.
