Skinny, shiny with sequins: these 3 boys are ready for anything this weekend...and I covet the lips on the boy in the middle. I do have to ask, however, what is up with the "Rosary-as-necklace" that seems to be around the neck of every other person I photograph lately. There is a fine line between being 'on trend' and trying too hard. I think rosaries belong in a church or bedside table. Thoughts?
