First up, Miranda Lambert was discovered in 2003 as a finalist onNashville Star. A decade later, she has matured both in style and sound.

It's not all just boots, spurs and rhinestones in country music anymore. This has never been more clear than when you take a look at then and now photos of your favorite country crooners. 

First up, Miranda Lambert was discovered in 2003 as a finalist on Nashville Star. A decade later, she has matured both in style and sound.

What a difference a decade makes! The Voice judge and "Doin' What She Likes" singer might win the Most Improved style award just for cutting that hair. 

Carrie Underwood

Far removed from the Oklahoma girl who dominated season four of American Idol, Underwood is now a bona fide country star and style icon. 

Dierks Bentley

The "Drunk on a Plane" singer has classed up his look in a major way in the decade since he won Best New Artist at the 2004 Academy of Country Music Awards. 

Keith Urban

The Australian-born country crooner and American Idol judge has thankfully ditched the wide-collared shirts since making his American debut at the 2000 CMAs. 

Faith Hill

The country diva has always been glamorous, but her style has certainly become more sophisticated since the late '90s.

Kenny Chesney

He might have a little less hair under that hat, but the only thing that's really changed about Chesney's look is that he doesn't bother with stuffy suits anymore. 

Taylor Swift

Swift's latest album is strictly pop, but the singer made a name for herself on the country charts. In the process of growing up and crossing over, Swift also upped her glam factor, debuting a new, shorter hair style at this year's Teen Choice Awards.  

Lady Antebellum

The country group certainly looks more polished since they first appeared at the CMT Awards in 2008. 

Brad Paisley

Not much has changed for Paisley, who has stuck with his trademark white cowboy hat since breaking on the scene in 2000.
