Skier Lindsey Vonn brought a burst of color to the ACM Awards red carpet when she arrived in a vibrant yellow ballgown with a full skirt and long-sleeved turtleneck top, to present a trophy.
The Olympian accessorized her gown with a slick topknot, letting the gown steal the show as she kept her makeup and jewelry to a minimum. While she looked fully glammed at first glance, the 33-year-old lifted her dress on the carpet to reveal that she capped off her look with a pair of white sneakers, proving that sometimes, comfort is the way to go.
