Steal Her Look For Less: Carrie Underwood's Green Sequin ACM Dress

Last week I asked you to vote in a poll based on which Carrie Underwood ACM look you liked the best. I was planning on doing a look for less based on the most popular choice. Since there was a tie between her purple red carpet gown and her audience dress, I chose my favorite look from the night. We just covered color as a major trend this spring and with green all over this year's Gold Globes red carpet I thought this was a perfect choice to give you readers an outfit idea.


Although I couldn't find an exact match to the Farah Angsana sequin dress Carrie wore, there are plenty of ways to add sparkle to any frock. Stick to an all over solid color. I like both of the emeralds pictured but this look would look fabulous in a rich purple or royal blue. Add a belt like the French Connection piece or a broach at the hip of the gown for a little "frost" and depth. Or if you can find a sequin choice - all the better! I love that Carrie kept her look simple and clean. A pair of platform nude shoes elongate the legs and look classically pretty with the short hemline. Since you want the dress to be the main focus of this outfit keep the jewelry to a minimum. A chunky bracelet and some crystal drop earrings are perfect accessories. A black clutch is the finishing touch and voilĂ ! Rock your look on a fancy date night or fun night out. Can't wait to see if you gals Go Green and try this out! Happy Thursday! xoxo
