- Hello from the wonderful Windy City! I’m Dayna, an Austinite who made the move to Chicago last summer for my first big girl job. I've got a love for beautiful photos, good eats, fashion, exploring, laughing, wine, books, dogs, and oh so much more. If those sound like some things you are a fan of too, I bet we'll get along just fine. Glad you're here!
