E.J. Johnson -- I'm a Knee High Kind of Guy (PHOTO)

The only thing E.J. Johnson wants for his birthday is for everyone to recognize his fierce, new physique and his black on black fashion sense.

E.J. finished up his birthday lunch at The Ivy on Thursday with a fab stroll in leather shorts and a gold encrusted Mo$chino sweater. The "Rich Kids of Beverly Hills" star is totally slayin' it after dropping more than 100 pounds -- but still taking full advantage of black's slimming nature.

Remember ... E.J. inherited some of Magic's height, so at 6’2” -- you can't pick up this kinda couture at your local Big & Tall.
