There's a LOT wrong with this article, and I can guarantee that any parts you want to nitpick, I'll most likely agree with you. www.teenvogue.com/story/rosaries-fashion-celebrities-history

But it is nice to see - for the first time - somebody from the world outside of Catholicism drawing attention to the issue of religious appropriation as it applies to Catholics. This issue has been bothering me for decades. (Yes, I'm old enough to remember Madonna sporting this "fashion.") And as it rightly points out, nobody actually *wears* a Rosary.

Got to wonder, what would be the reaction if, for whatever reason, people outside of Judaism started wearing yarmulkes? Tillit? Tefillin?

"...respect must everywhere be shown for the feelings of all those who are attached to the Latin liturgical tradition, by a wide and generous application of the directives already issued some time ago by the Apostolic See for the use of the Roman Missal according to the typical edition of 1962." --- Pope St John Paul II, Ecclesia Dei, 1988
