2012 CMT Music Awards Best Dressed Pictures

Style was in the air at the 2012 CMT Music Awards, where country stars strutted the red carpet to show off their best dressed looks. Male and female artists alike impressed us with their choices, especially those who opted for classic fashion. Take a look at our picks of best dressed pictures in the gallery above, read about why we think these singers' style is top, and don't forget to leave your own feedback in the comments section.

Lady Antebellum: Lady A tops our best dressed list simply because in one simple shot, you've got three fashionable country singers. Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley both rocked the blue jean-blazer setup, and Hillary Scott stuck to a classic little black dress. The V-neck and tall heels gave her a slimming silhouette that highlighted her natural beauty.

The Civil Wars: Duo Joy Williams and John Paul White's classy black tie ensembles complement each other perfectly. Williams, the pregnant half of the pair, accentuated her growing baby bump with a well-fitted long gown, while White tied the look together with a stylish suit and bow tie.

Miranda Lambert: All three Pistol Annies looked lovely on the red carpet, but Mrs. Blake Shelton stood out from the pack with her knee-length cocktail dress. The strapless black look -- both elegant and fun -- suits the sometimes fiery, sometimes serious singer well.

Jana Kramer: Many country fans might not yet know a whole lot about this newcomer, but if her 2012 CMT Music Awards red carpet ensemble gives us a hint of what's to come, you may be interested. The singer's pretty, cream-colored fitted lace dress is both modest and sexy, especially paired with those loose curls and nude heels.

Hunter Hayes: You know how some people just look cool without trying? Well, that's Hunter Hayes. With one hand in his pocket, he doesn't seem to care whether we like his style or not -- but the dark skinny jeans paired with a coral red T-shirt, black blazer and sneakers create an outfit that's both laid back and on point.
