The Rosary is a traditional Catholic prayer (also prayed by some Anglicans/Episcopalians) in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary. While praying the Rosary, it is customary to contemplate certain key events in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ, which Catholics call the "mysteries" (the Incarnation, the Nativity, Jesus' Crucifixion, the Resurrection, for example), while reciting the Hail Mary, and the Our Father.
The Rosary is not worship or adoration of the Mother of God (such prayer belongs to God alone) but rather a veneration or honoring of Mary for her faithfulness to God's plan for her and her cooperation in the saving mission of her Son.

A rosary is not meant to be worn, outside of a religious habit. In other words, some religious brothers, sisters, monks, and nuns have a rosary hanging from their belt as part of their religious habit. Very occasionally, I have seen an older lady who walks to Church who does not have pockets or a handbag wear her rosary around her neck, but this is rare. Young people who have plenty of pockets and such should never have a rosary around their neck where it would show as this can be taken the wrong way by religious people who pray the rosary daily.
