Mercury Is Out of Retrograde; Here's What to Wear Now

If you've been feeling a little off-kilter, don't worry, it's going to be alright: Mercury is finally out of retrograde. We spent the last three weeks playing it safe with our style while we waited for the planet to realign and put an end to the chaos and confusion. We've pegged all our ripped seams, broken heels, and too-small tops on the astrological phenomenon, but the time has come to take back fashion and stop playing it safe.

It's time to turn up the intensity and take a chance on outfits you just couldn't risk before. So we're challenging you to wear these 29 fashion dares now, before Mercury gets up to its antics again.
