We’ve all seen “The Devil Wears Prada” and caught a glimpse of Anne Hathaway’s character’s perfectly disheveled, and ginorm, downtown NYC apartment. (You wonder, if her boyfriend is a line cook and she’s an assistant, how do they pay the rent? Oh, yeah, it’s a movie.) Well, before you start thinking that movies imitate life, get a look inside one real fashion assistant’s home—in Japan. Even though Emi Kameoka works for Vogue Nippon, she’s got a pretty normal house in Tokyo (or is it her parents’ house?)—well, except for her insane Chanel stash, and even more bonkers “My Little Pony” collection. You can tell right away, this girl ain’t so much about what her space looks like and instead spends most of her paycheck on accessories and plastic horses. (Which, if she’s a young assistant starting out, pretty much fits with what I used to do. Drop all my cash on clothing and shoes and bags and not really give a second thought to where I was living.) She’s a must see—check out the insanity, after the jump!

it’s not really related to the fact that she works for fashion, its really a cultural thing present with a lot of the japanese youth of today.

I would die for her My Little Pony collection. I would also die (of embarrassment) if I were in her riding a little pony photo collection.

This is hilarious. I think it’s also weird (especially with her on the horse….I mean, I think she needs to get a real horse but that’s understandably difficult…) but it’s awesome that she loves My Little Pony so much. Got an obsession? Just own it baby!
