The 'Don't Worry, Be Yonce' Tee by Nala Los Angeles looks to Queen B for insight.

[The clever shirt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gap-1) plays on Meher Baba's [famous quote](https://www.trendhunter.com/slideshow/quote-display-device), "don't worry, be happy," best known from Bob Marley's [classic jam of the same name](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/de-la-soul-x-levis). Worries are those pesky, nagging thoughts that "give way to anxiety or unease" and "allow the mind to dwell on difficulties or troubles." They are a defining symptom of plebeians everywhere, but I'm pretty sure Beyonce has never experienced one -- I mean, the woman is flawless.

As someone who over-analyzes the syntax, grammar and diction of every single text message I've received since middle school, I think we could all benefit from channeling our inner Beyonce in times of trouble.
