They’ve been alive for centuries and so has their style, and following the production of books like Twilight and The Southern Vampire Mysteries (True Blood), there are vampire themed shows popping up all over the place.

With their nocturnal activity, sexual nature and beautiful men what’s not to love.  So in preparation for True Blood season 2 coming out on DVD and the new Twilight film let’s embrace our dark side and introduce some vampy lingerie into the bedroom.

These ‘Dreamlegs’ Cuban heel stockings from La Senza (£10) will certainly bring a seductive feel to any outfit and give you a chance to show off your pins. You can always team them with something like this gothic rose detail Nadia basque from Agent Provocateur (£185).  Although the item is pricey it is bound to last you through many seasons and you can team it with something sheer to show off its beauty.

For the moderate price of £50 there is this boned black corset from Ann Summers which will give you a sensational silhouette and can also be worn as under or outerwear.
Finally a less expensive alternative; why not take a look at bananashoes that have great items like this three piece teddy set (£22.95). It includes matching gloves and thigh high stockings for the complete look.

So don’t be afraid to embrace your inner vampire and maybe you’ll be lucky enough to snag a guy like Eric Northman… one can only hope.
