If you’re planning on an 80s throwback for Halloween (or everyday fashion, for that matter) but want to add a deeper edge to your ensemble, we have just the shirt for you—in fact, we have probably the only shirt that fits that description. This Buddha Say Relax tee from Gaiam is a witty play on the uber-popular Frankie Say Relax t-shirts that were everywhere after the band Frankie Goes to Hollywood hit it big, but this new version makes a lot more sense, with Buddha, instead of Frankie, dishing out the advice.

Even those born in the 90s will be able to appreciate the reminder to mellow out from whatever they’re doing, and Frankie fans and non-Frankie fans alike should be able to get behind the fact that this Buddha Say Relax tee is made from 100% organic cotton that’s dyed with low-impact eco-friendly dyes (something you couldn’t find in the original Frankie Say Relax tees). Add a figure-flattering, comfy shape and you’ve got a t-shirt that’s just as good for the grocery store as for working out, and that will definitely get a few smiles no matter where you go.

Better yet, because the Buddha Say Relax shirt is part of Gaiam’s line of Thoughtful Tees, ten percent of the net sales from each shirt will go to one of the project’s nonprofits, like Doctors Without Borders or The Conservation Fund, contributing to a program that has raised more than $200,000 for important charities since its inception in 2007. Beat that, Frankie.
