| The Necklace: Luxury a want or a need Luxury in life is treated more as a necessity that a want. When in life luxuries should be wants. People think that having exotic and expensive things makes them a better person. People also like to say that they need that thing when they really don’t. This is like the mentality of a child. When a child tells his parent I need that toy, when in reality the child just wants. Adults do that same but in a more mature manner.

You could say that she needed that dress because in the story it tells us that she doesn’t have one, but the have she act told me that she really just wanted it. She act just like a child that need that toy. |
