About La Dolce Vita



Paloma Contreras is the founder and editor-in-chief of High Gloss Magazine as well as the creator of the style blog, La Dolce Vita, which has garnered attention from loyal readers around the world and has been featured in multiple publications including The Washington Post, Better Homes & Gardens, 002 Houston, and AOL’s ShelterPop. La Dolce Vita was founded in the summer of 2007 as a summer respite from Paloma's former career as a high school Spanish teacher.  Paloma’s passion for the sweet life is reflected in the topics she explores daily from interior design, fashion and intriguing people to fabulous food and travel destinations. An enduring love of magazines, creative writing and the pursuit of a stylish life prompted her to create High Gloss magazine: an online publication with the mission of providing readers with stylish inspiration for every facet of life. High Gloss has been featured on Curbed National, Casa Sugar, AOL's ShelterPop, and The Wall Street Journal's WSJ.com. Paloma lives in Houston with her husband Fabian and their adorable dog, Tate.

My dog, Tate gets a lot of love around here. He is the resident cutie at La Dolce Vita and he keeps me company while I spend my days blogging. Tate just turned one in March and he is a Cocker Spaniel / Poodle mix.
