British-born Stephen Moyer, who plays the undead Southern Civil war veteran Bill Compton in the hugely successful HBO series, True Blood has got the fame, got the style and got the girl, his co-star and wife Anna Paquin.

The September edition of GQ has announced Moyer as their ‘Man of the Month’ for style, accompanied by a candid interview, where Moyer revealed that he too would want to “f***k Robert Patterson” if he “were a teenage-girl”, when asked if there was any rivalry felt  between himself and his fellow Vampire pin-up.

Finding the idea of celibate vampires ridiculous, True Blood creator Alan Ball, revealed in this month’s Rolling Stone that, for him, ‘vampires are sex’. Growing tired of the vampire abstinence stories, Moyer and on-and-off screen love interest Anna Paquin have shaken things up with their nothing short of scandalous scenes.

And if the cover of Rolling Stone is anything to go by, the HBO phenomenon is only set to get bloodier and racier.  Not only that, but it has been reported that the pair Moyer (40) and Paquin (28) tied the knot last Saturday in a low-key ceremony at their private residence in Malibu, California.  Moyer’s approach to style is relaxed and uncomplicated even if a little on the safe side. But it works…

Here are some key pieces to emulate Stephen’s timeless (immortal?) look.
