My girl crush, Carrie Underwood, won entertainer of the year for the second year in a row at the ACM awards last night. I know I’ve written about Carrie a couple of times, but I think she is so gifted and so beautiful. She’s also humble and grateful. And she always remembers to thank the most important people in her life that got her where she is today and never forgets to thank God. Todd and I are going to see her in concert in May right before we leave for our anniversary trip. I’m not sure which one of us is more excited.

I like country music a lot, but I wouldn’t call myself a “fan” of many groups. I’m more into the songs and if an artist or group has a lot of great songs then I’ll become a real fan. I am a huge fan of Carrie’s.

Carrie had a few wardrobe changes last night, and she hit a high note with all of them!

this glittering mini-dress was a little short– I was actually nervous for her a few times, but she looked amazing in it.

I watched the ACM awards too! I look forward to it each year along with all the different music awards shows. I enjoyed several performances last night including Toby Keith and Carrie Underwood. I loved all of Carrie’s outfits! She is one of my favorite music artists as well.

5 Sarah H. April 19, 2010 at 1:04 pm

Yes and yes. Love her :) I even voted for her online and I don’t usually vote for things like that!

6 meghan April 19, 2010 at 1:13 pm

I’m with you! Carrie looked absolutely amazing last night, and she is by far one of my favorite performers. Love her!

7 Jessica April 19, 2010 at 1:20 pm

I love Carrie! When I lived in Norman, OK right after college my roommate and I would stop in Checotah every time we drove home to Arkansas to see if we could catch her “visiting.” There is a life-sized billboard on the interstate at the Checotah exit. I love her style!

8 Kristen April 19, 2010 at 1:27 pm

Yes! Love, love, love her. Voted for her 1,000 times a night when she was on American Idol and would have voted for her 1,000 times for Entertainer of the Year last night if I still maintained the fervor for texting that I had in 2005. :)

9 Jessi April 19, 2010 at 1:28 pm

Only saw a few minutes….loved her last dress!

10 Beth April 19, 2010 at 1:57 pm

LOVED IT! I thought she looked great! I was happy that Miranda Lambert and Lady A won! I am glad no one clapped for Leanne Rimes and I was a little worried about Nicole Kidmans outfit! Overall it was FANTASTIC but I am a country music fan!!!

11 Jessica April 19, 2010 at 2:00 pm

I got to see Carrie Underwood perform Wednesday in my town of East Lansing, MI. She was amazing and you’ll L-O-V-E the show! A little note about her short dresses that she shared with all of us, she wears shorts underneath them so that no one can see up her dress or whatever! No wardrobe malfunctions for Carrie!

12 Tara Gibson April 19, 2010 at 2:01 pm

she looked stunning all night! that long gown is to die for and i LOVE that white dress, ADORABLE!

13 DrayaAnn April 19, 2010 at 2:02 pm

I loved her outfits, but my hubby loved her outfits more! haha
She is always so well put together and has such a voice! That floral gown was to die for. She looked just stunning!

14 Sarah April 19, 2010 at 2:19 pm

She is always gorgeous. Totally girl crush-worthy!

15 Maria April 19, 2010 at 2:25 pm

I can’t wait until her wedding pictures surface! She’s beautiful and amazingly talented!

16 Stephanie April 19, 2010 at 2:27 pm

LOVE Carrie! She’s gorgeous and she is one that you can always count on being good live. A lot of singers just are not that great when they sing live, but Carrie is always right on! Love her!

17 Megan April 19, 2010 at 2:36 pm

I missed the awards! I do love that Rafael Cennamo dress!!

18 Prissy Southern Prep April 19, 2010 at 2:43 pm

I love Carrie! She is one of the most beautiful female celebrities, ever.

19 Christina April 19, 2010 at 2:45 pm

I love her and am totally jealous of your concert plans! She looked amazing last night. I am obsessed with her Rafael Cennamo dress, it’s definitely my favorite!

20 Jamie April 19, 2010 at 2:51 pm

I agree…she looked beautiful last night!

21 Brenna April 19, 2010 at 3:18 pm

Love Carrie and my favorite dress was the last one she had on. Love love loved it!!

22 jackiefo April 19, 2010 at 3:19 pm

i LOVE the last white dress and the sparkly dress. Although I would never wear anything that short becuse I would be afraid I’d flash someone! She is just beautiful and a great singer to boot!

23 Kate April 19, 2010 at 3:26 pm

Missed the ACMs but SO glad Lady Antebellum won for “Need You Now” – love, love, love that song… and I chuckle to myself every time it comes on because who doesn’t have a good drunk-dial story?

ADORING the 4th white dress… and of course I wish I had the legs to pull off a (slightly longer) version of the 2nd sequined dress!

24 maureen April 19, 2010 at 3:57 pm

I love Carrie!! I didn’t watch the show – but ohmygosh that long dress with the floral print is SO beautiful.

Have a wonderful time getting to see her in concert (I mean – I know you will, but still!!)

25 Marianne April 19, 2010 at 4:56 pm

HI! New follower :) I love your blog, it’s so cute! I have a HUGE girl crush on Carrie, too ;) I saw her in concert last week and it was AMAZING! I actually just recap-ed it on my blog the other day. You and the hubs will have an awesome time! And doesn’t she have the best clothes and shoes? Gah, I want them all. I mean, if they’d actually fit and all. haha.

26 Rachel April 19, 2010 at 5:33 pm

That girl never looks bad. Just isn’t possible. The gown she wore for Temporary Home made me think of a spring time princess Barbie. She’s gorgeous!

27 Katie April 19, 2010 at 6:00 pm

I saw Carrie in concert a couple weeks ago and it was amazing! Definately try and catch her on tour if you can!

28 meredith April 19, 2010 at 8:03 pm

My family ADORES Carrie! My mom calls her her fourth daughter! :) We are going to see her in May also, cannot wait! She’s a doll– classy always. Love, love, love her.

29 T Marie April 19, 2010 at 9:36 pm

YES! I do love Carrie! One of my friends played softball with her in high school, and I always curse her for not keeping in touch (not really)! But seriously, how awesome would it be to be BFF with Carrie Underwood?

30 april April 19, 2010 at 10:14 pm

I saw Carrie in Indiana a couple weeks ago…she was amazing and so much better than I ever expected her to be! I can’t wait to hear what you think of her show.

31 Jess April 19, 2010 at 10:23 pm

Adore Carrie!!!

I thought she and Miranda really were the stars of the nights…… besides the awards, they both had great performances and looked gorgeous in their outfits.

As I’m a HUGE Lady A fan, I was thrilled with their wins. If you haven’t checked them out, both of their albums are awesome!!

32 Sherrie April 20, 2010 at 7:23 am

I did watch the awards (and I am so not a country fan, but it has become so much more mainstream that I do love a lot of country singers/groups now). I thought Carrie looked gorgeous.

33 MelissaF April 20, 2010 at 8:52 am

Yes, I really like Carrie Underwood as well. She’s got a great voice. And yes, I was extremely worried about that mini dress!! She kept hiking up her leg during the number and that made me extremely nervous for her :-)

34 NCF April 20, 2010 at 3:46 pm

yes, i’m with you (and I admit I didn’t used to be the biggest fan of hers, but I’ve come around! haha)! she is really talented and looked gorgeous, hair, makeup, dresses! especially love the first and last dress, and the long one too, so pretty!

35 Sarah April 20, 2010 at 8:07 pm

I love her Temporary Home dress! I love her too; she just seems so genuine. :)

36 Julie April 20, 2010 at 10:04 pm

I love Carrie and she is definitely my “girl crush” too :-)

37 Sweet Simplicity April 20, 2010 at 11:26 pm

Love the new header! It is so grown-up and that picture of you is absolutely gorgeous!

38 Brittney April 23, 2010 at 7:02 pm

LOVE Carrie! There isn’t a thing about her that seems like she’s a complete brat! I read in a Self magazine article that anytime she wears a little mini-dress she wears shorts underneath because she doesn’t want a wardrobe malfunction! I just feel like she wears exactly what I would if I had her body and money!

39 Sarah April 26, 2010 at 4:24 pm

I love Carrie too, at least her fashion and hair! BUT (ugh everyone hates the but). I live in Nashville, and have countless friends who have served her at Tootsies, met her at a bar, seen her at Whole Foods/Target and they all have shared that shes less than nice. Like very less than nice. At first I didn’t want to believe it because she seems like such a sweet, all-American girl (amazing song btw), but I can’t ignore so many repeat encounters! But I’ll still love her hair and clothes. Hope that wasn’t too Debbie Downer- but I thought people should know (from a local girl).
