I want to begin this post by saying that I still can’t believe I won the "Snow White and the Huntsman" Facebook sweepstakes…and the trip is over! So many people have told me how lucky I am (which I won’t deny in this case), but the only other thing I’ve ever won by chance was a laundry basket at my high school’s after-prom. So in the words of Kristen Stewart, this was a BFD.

On the Tuesday before Thanksgiving I received an email telling me I was the grand-prize winner, and less than a week later, I was on a red-eye to Heathrow with my best friend who came as my guest. On the morning of November 30, a car picked us up from the hotel. I was on the verge of hyperventilating, and we were on our way to Pinewood Studios!

The "SWATH" unit publicist met us there and drove us around, giving a full tour of the studios before taking us through the different sets, mostly consisting of castle interiors. I saw costumes, the magic mirror and the milk bath the Queen uses (it felt like thin Elmer’s glue). I found out once I arrived on set that Kristen (Snow White), Sam Claflin (Prince William) and Chris (the Huntsman) were all there and I’d have a chance to meet each of them. Pfft, I wasn’t nervous at all......

The puff sleeve is sort of reflected in Kristen’s costume, but that’s about it. The rest of it — she’s a totally different kind of character. She’s much less kind of princess-y and more kind of a badass girl. I just showed her the stuff and she was really into it. She loved the armor and all the other bits that she has, it was — she’s really not obsessed with clothes at this point in her career. She’s young and free from that obsession, and in her work previous she hasn’t worn those presentational costumes, so it’s kind of new for her. She’s got a great presence as an actor and you put a costume on somebody that really knows how to wear it and it becomes really strong and kind of scary.

We began our British journey with a trek to legitimately the middle of nowhere – but it was all worth it because there we got to hang out with Sam Claflin aka the movie’s Prince William aka Hottie #1 (now named Prince Charmant) of Snow White & The Huntsman. It was freakin’ FREEZING outside, so myself and all the other reporters all huddled up in a random trailer on-set to interview him. 

And then, it was back on the bus as we drove to a more, civilized location – the infamous Pinewood Studios (like Universal Studios, but way more British). Our first stop was a tour of the costume closet – more like factory – with the movie’s costume designer Colleen Atwood. Just imagine the coolest fashion closet at your favorite magazine, but 8,000 times bigger and from 8 centuries earlier. You envision it? Ok. So we got to see everything in there from the tons of dresses Kristen would wear (there’s at least a dozen of each outfit, FYI), to the factory where Colleen’s peeps made 2,000+ costumes for all the extras. Wowza. 
But then we head on over to tour the castle set and it was like we were in Lord of the Rings or something. The castle is Ravena’s, aka Charlize Theron’s, and the tour guide slash publicist slash cool British lady told us the castle took 6 months to build for the 2 weeks they filmed there. 

Now it was to the “Black Woods” we went (Google it if you’re curious) where things got really exciting. Besides the fact that I was shivering and really wishing I had packed a ski suit in my suitcase, I didn’t even care because we got to stand on the sidelines as Kristen and Chris filmed a scene together. The scene involved them hanging upside down from a tree, and it was the one that you may have heard about when Kristen accidentally punched Chris in the face. Yes. I witnessed that first hand.
