The caption under the first photo says it all: "There's nothing like your favorite bright-striped pullover to keep you warm. Well, except for a hot guy." The official purpose of the photo spread may have been spring fashions, but I guarantee most readers are paying a lot more attention to that aforementioned "hot guy." Ian, who is dating his Vampire Diaries co-star Nina Dobrev in real life, gets cozy with a model in this amazing series of photos. We're totally jealous.

In the article, Ian talks about the most romantic gesture he's ever made -- whisking Nina away for an impromptu trip to Paris! Those two are so adorable together, we can't stand it! Now if only Damon and Elena would finally get together on Vampire Diaries! Team Delena forever!

If all these photos of Ian are making you miss your weekly dose of Damon Salvatore, don't worry! The Vampire Diaries finally returns from hiatus on March 15!
