Here is the correct answer.

First, minor points - comments on characters and comments on the plot.

Then, major points – loss of the necklace, how the necklace was paid for, and vanity and materialism are faults of character.

We could say that the content of this story of “The Necklace” talks about the importance of vanity and showing an image that does not correspond to reality. Madame Loisel believes that the necklace represented a symbol of power and status in society. But it happens that she loses the referred piece of jewelry and then she inherits a huge debt. Madame Loisel wants to appear influential. She wants to project and image that can really support. As she has to pay the collar to Madame Forestier, she ruins part of her life for being too pretentious. So the minor points of the story are comments on characters and comments on the plot. The major points are the loss of the necklace, how the necklace was paid for, and vanity and materialism are faults of character.
