6 classy bearded Halloween costumes

  Halloween can be tough finding the right costume to suit a beard while keeping it classy. These are 5 options to consider if you are stressing about that last minute costume dinner party while keeping it fun yet not over the top... 

"SERPICO! SERPICO!"

Abraham Lincoln

You can never go wrong with "Abe". Classy and one of the most iconic men to ever live.

Brian Wilson

If you are a sports fan and a Giants fan this is as you know is most likely already your "go to" costume. If you have an intense beard you should be able to pull this off easily and for cheap since you probably already have the hat and jersey hanging in the closet.

The Bearded Skipper

Not much is needed to say about the classic bearded skipper/fishermen. Simple yet timeless.

Lastly the man himself... Ragnar Lodbrok. May not fall into the category of classy but if you can pull this off it it won't matter. This costume can be rocked with and undercut or a shaved yet which we have seen in the newest season. 

Stay classy, Stay safe and Happy Halloween. Cheers!

LEVI STOCKE - The Stand (Original Song)

Song I wrote about John Ashley the bank robber and his final stand. Back to the southern roots. Hope you like it...

Original song I wrote about the final stand of John Ashley the notorious bank robber in Florida in the early 1900s they used to call the bandit. Getting back to my Southern roots with this one hope you like it. Cheers!

Lyrics :

Dust comin' over the hill

Dogs barking up the road

Looks like they done found me

God rest my soul

I've been on the run for so long now

Let me tell you son

There aint no peace in this here house

If you've known the things I've done

There aint no preacher man that can save me from myself

An outlaw on the run never deserved any help

And it looks as though this is it for me

Sheriff says "Boy there aint nowhere to hide,

And all those bullets with my name

They don't mean a thing"

You're surrounded as you can see

Not just here but all over Palm Beach County

There aint no preacher man that can save you from yourself

An outlaw on the run never deserved any help

And it looks as though this is it for you.

Lyrics & song written by Levi Stocke

BOOT GAMES : SAINT LAURENT

   When it comes to fashion for men I always have been one who enjoys the simple iconic pieces and collections that are one of a kind... Forever pieces. A high end leather jacket is complimented best by a high end pair of boots like the Saint Laurent Harness Wyatts. Boot shopping is taken very seriously at least to me because it is something I don't do very often so I find boots that survive through the changes and wear. This is my latest timeless addition.

STOCKE & SEPASYAR

 Some time ago Ali @sepasyar and myself shared one single powerful idea, to create a fine jewelry collection that would tell a story and fill the void in market that has been falling short of expectations. Combining our shared passion we have put our heart and soul into the detail of every single piece... STOCKE & SEPASYAR is all handmade & crafted in Los Angeles, California which will always remain because the things you care most about you keep close to home... As for the first collection and with all future collections there will be a very limited amount made so that what you have is something that is truly one of a kind and stays that way... I get many messages about where my jewelry is from or where to get it and I have to say I have been looking forward to this day for along time to be able to answer these questions. This journey has just begun and we are very excited to share... "Silver and leather are just materials until there is a story and that is where the journey begins." 

STOCKE & SEPASYAR - pre-order is open.

   To stay motivated it is important to stay organized. This pertains not only to keeping up with household things but also your social group. You are more influenced by your peers and those around you than you can imagine. This doesn't mean you disown your friends but instead to consider the amount of time you spend with the ones who lack direction or desire to better themselves. Spend good amounts of time with your mentors and people who have found a path that is appealing to you or how you would like to be seen in the future. Doing so will also give you the knowledge to encourage those friends that are having trouble finding their way and you can be a peer to peer role model for them. Life is short and is supposed to be enjoyed and for myself that is eliminating stress in all aspects that I can. 

  The other part to mention about organization is simply putting order in place in your life. In the last section I mentioned stress elimination and cleanliness is a huge one. Keeping clean will not only impress those around you but will also give you the confidence you need to continue to succeed. Wishing you all the best.

Cheers,
