Carrie Underwood was already one of America’s biggest country music stars when the music video for her single “Good Girl” debuted in March 2012. Released ahead of her Blown Away album, the video made its world premiere on Vevo on March 12 and featured multiple highly styled looks that turned heads.
With both its fashion and energy, the “Good Girl” video didn’t disappoint — even winning over non-fans with its visual flair and catchy sound.
The music video premiered with a teaser on Entertainment Tonight on March 12, 2012, followed by the full release on her Vevo channel the same evening. Directed by Theresa Wingert and edited by Jacquelyn London, it features Underwood in dual roles.
She portrays the titular “Good Girl” and another character who cautions her about her ill-suited partner. This video garnered significant acclaim, winning the fan-voted Video of the Year at the 2012 CMT Music Awards.
One of the outfits styled on Carrie Underwood was this high-low hemmed floral dress belted at the waist with a tan grosgrain ribbon belt.
The dress’s country-chic charm, paired with the daisy in her hand, makes it instantly clear that this is Carrie embodying the “good girl” persona.

It’s a sweet, romantic look — but those bold pink heels add a flirty, unexpected edge that a “good girl” might think twice about wearing.

Maybe that’s why those bold pink heels were paired with the dress — to let the high-low hemline show them off!
Carrie Underwood’s good girl dress is this ‘Marissa’ dress from Elizabeth and James:

While this dress was also offered in plain white for the same $665 price, Elizabeth and James are no longer producing new pieces.
The Olsen twins’ once-popular brand has since been discontinued, though vintage styles like this floral high-low dress can occasionally be found on resale sites.
Carrie Underwood’s “Good Girl” look may be from 2012, but it’s a perfect example of how Elizabeth and James blended sweet femininity with a touch of edge. This signature made the brand a celebrity favorite.
Carrie’s sweet-meets-sassy floral look perfectly captured the aesthetic that made Elizabeth and James a celebrity favorite. Here’s how other stars have styled pieces from the Olsen twins’ now-defunct label…
