When I think of HBO's "True Blood," fashion isn't the first thing that comes to
mind. North Louisiana vampires aren't exactly into cutting-edge couture.
The show's wardrobing department does a brilliant job of capturing small-town style in all its skimpy, skanky glory.
Main character Sookie is a veritable Daisy Duke for the undead. Her scoop necks and short shorts provide easy access to crucial arteries.
Brooding vampire Bill is a fan of henleys. Shapeshifter Sam keeps it real in tight wranglers and snap-front plaid.
And then there's Eric. The Viking vampire sheriff, we learned on Sunday, highlights his hair. In a sneak-preview clip, he also sports what appears to be a velour warm-up suit while shopping in Wal-Mart.
And yet, Eric, played by Alexander Skarsgard, apparently does have an eye for edgy jewelry. In a future episode he sports an eagle-talon necklace by New York designer Pamela Love.

While no fashion icon, I think some of Sookie's summer dresses have been nice (if a little skimpy).
And look at Eric working that dorky getup in the final scene of the last episode! (Now they just need to tell the producers vampires cannot change their physical appearance).
I have several Pamela Love pieces. I really enjoy the jewelry. It's unique.
