Best bits from the American Country Awards - Carrie Underwood in red and Reba McEntire looking HOT

This year's American Country Awards looked bloomin fabulous. I'm going to make it my life's mission to get there one day, but for the time being I'll have to take a seat behind the screen. And this year it was Carrie Underwood who completely stole the show... in her OMGorgeous red Georges Chakra gown, up-do and no less than SIX wins!

My only gripe? That my hero, Dolly Parton, was nowhere to be seen! She never goes out any more, and I don't like it. She lights up the red carpet! However, taking her place was second-in-line to Country Queen's throne Reba McEntire who, at 55, looked so unbelievably... well... young as she performed.

There was some red carpet men's high lights too: Country singer Josh Turner chose an amazing striped Bolongaro Trevor jacket (featured on the blog here) and Bret Michaels also wowed in his black velvet jacket, embellished so-wrong-it's-right cowboy hat and vintage boots.
