Jessica Alba Wearing Silver Religious Bracelet

Famous for her role as a superhero in Fantastic Four and star role in the dance movie Honey, Jessica Alba never fails to get praises from amazed critics, media and fellow celebrities for her beautiful red carpet looks and impressive outfits at Hollywood events. The Fashion Police, for whom everyone’s outfit is target for criticism, rarely finds fault in Jessica’s get-ups, compared to other actresses who never learn and keep coming back to the red carpet wearing another fashion disaster.
Jessica Alba looks immaculately gorgeous in this shapeless beaded gown with a waistline that goes as high as a basque underneath the bust line. Wearing a religous bracelet, she smiles and stands cheerfully while holding the microphone with both hands, fingers clasped.
Religious bracelets are “it”, as opposed to the chunky bangles with bold hues that are also trendy for 2012. Dating back some many years, these bracelets were already worn by religious people but not as an accessory, but as something symbolizing one’s faith. Right now, they are being religiously worn by the faithful and non-faithful alike. For those who use the rosary as a prayer tool, it is sacred and should be kept accordingly. But for those whose faith lies in the world, it’s just something to adorn themselves with. Either way, it is still a hot trend.

When picking prayer bracelets one should always consider the look. Do you like it? Does it fit? Is it comfortable enough to wear? These are questions you should ask yourself before buying one. Examine the material, the size, the color and every detail you can remember. Most of all, never forget checking the price tag. Sometimes, accessories cost a lot that’s why you should have a budget. As we all know, it’s always better to save than spend more than you can afford.

Rosary necklaces are currently on the radar and more sought after compared to smaller ones. Designers have declared that this year’s fashion statement is big, bold and ballistic. Apparently, most rosary wearing celebrities have followed it religiously while experimenting with ethnic, rocker, disco, 60s and 20s fashion.
Some condemn the trend for treating rosaries as mere accessories when in fact they are used solely for prayer purposes. Yet designers created those necklaces to adorn clients for beauty, glamour and vogue.
Clearly, the idea of a rosary is just an inspiration that materialized into such magnificent objects that could make any neck look better than being bare, and even draw the eyes down for some tease at the cleavage. This is where the “sexy” of rosaries no matter how religious they sound, comes in.
