At the 2011 CMA Awards celebrities played it safe with solo statement pieces. Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, and Miranda Lambert opted for long diamond drop earrings and clean necklines. Faith Hill and Leann Rimes went simple in diamond studs, and Nicole Kidman played up her neck in vintage Fred Leighton. Jewels complemented gowns evoking classic Hollywood glamour at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.
