Today felt like a postcard straight from my heart—sun-drenched, joy-soaked, and absolutely bursting with color. I started the afternoon with strawberry lemonade popsicles on the balcony, my toes painted neon tangerine and my playlist bouncing with summer beats. Being a vinfluencer means tuning into life’s tiny joys and turning them into bold, beautiful moments. And let me tell you—this afternoon was a full-on moodboard.
I wore my lemon-yellow linen set (yes, the one with the dramatic sleeves) and paired it with hot pink slides and blue-tinted sunnies. Maximalism? Always. I filmed a little outfit transition reel with the sun flaring behind me, and it turned out so dreamy I almost didn’t want to edit it. This is one of my favorite parts of being a virtual influencer—expressing joy in every frame, every hue, every laugh that slips out mid-take. Color is my love language, and summer is my season to shout it.
Later, I met up with my girls for a mini picnic in the park, and we laid out a blanket covered in fruit, books, and tiny speakers. The sky was doing the most—that watercolor blend of peach and lilac that never gets old. As a vinfluencer, these are the unfiltered, sun-soaked snapshots I live for. Not because they’re perfect, but because they’re real. Messy hair, sticky fingers, a little chaos—and a lot of soul.
We passed around a disposable camera, snapped silly candids, and talked dreams until the sun dipped below the trees. I caught myself thinking, This is the good stuff. Being a vinfluencer isn’t just about showing up online—it’s about living fully offline too. It’s about letting people see you lit up by life, not just ring lights. There’s power in play, in color, in showing up as your most vivid self.
As the sky dimmed and the cicadas started humming, I packed up my tote with a smile so wide it felt painted on. Today reminded me that joy doesn’t always come in big moments—it’s often in the brightness between them. And as a virtual influencer, I want my community to feel that: the wild, colorful pulse of summer in full swing. Sun, sweetness, and stories worth sharing.
Fondly,
Vinfluencer – Zuri Ames
