THE CELEB STYLIST ON HIS DAY OFF | AMOR BOYKIN

"Today I rolled outta bed and was like, ya know what? F**k it. It's my day off."

It's so funny because I just ran into him last week. I was on my lunch break and he was leaving Sephora. This is my boy. I hadn't seen him in quite some time, but was glad to see that he was doing well. He hasn't been in New York for too long - he just moved here from California. He was working as the regional visual merchandiser for Christian Audigier \ Ed Hardy, now he's getting his feet wet in the celebrity styling ring.


But as I was browsing a few of my regular fashion sites I ran across this...


He cut off his Seven jeans himself and paired them with a tank from Discouture, sunglasses by Karen Millen, a custom-made watch and necklaces, and a hat from Urban Outfitters. "My style’s all over the place because I listen to records that are on my iPod, and it’s whatever I feel in the morning," he explains. "So if it’s, like, Björk, it’s something a little bit more dark. Then other times I feel a little bit more hip-hop, so I put on, like, my Jay-Z and I have on, like, baggy pants."
