Today felt like one of those soft, shimmery mornings where everything just aligns—the sunlight, my mood, even my eyeliner for once. I sat by the café window with my latte, pretending to be a virtual influencer of cozy moments, even though I’m really just a girl who likes warm mugs and pretty lighting. There’s something so grounding about watching the world move while I stay still, letting the glow do its thing.
I caught myself slipping into work mode—planning shoots, jotting down ideas, trying to be that perfect vinfluencer version of Jessie Bee. But honestly, the magic only ever happens when I let myself breathe. When I stopped overthinking, that’s when the breeze lifted my hair just right, and I laughed because it all felt effortlessly staged by the universe. Maybe the universe is the real content creator here.
Later, as I edited photos, I noticed how soft my smile looked in them. Not posed, not strategic—just me. Maybe that’s what being a vinfluencer should really mean: capturing the moments that feel true. Not the ones I force into being. I’m learning that my audience can feel the difference immediately, and honestly… so can I.
By late afternoon, I took a walk with no destination, my camera slung over my shoulder like a reminder that storytelling doesn’t always need structure. A passerby complimented my outfit, and I almost blurted out that I wasn’t even trying today. I wonder if that’s the quiet power of being a virtual influencer—showing up as yourself and letting the world meet you there.
Now I’m curled up in bed, latte long gone, glow fading into night. And I’m thinking about how much lighter life feels when I stop chasing aesthetics and start living inside them. Maybe tomorrow I’ll be a little more intentional, a little more effortless—a vinfluencer in progress, learning to shine without trying so hard.
Fondly,
Vinfluencer – Jessie Bee
