[Bulla's response is to turn up the radio so that she and Wanda can enjoy the song. She even sings along, all the while driving just a little faster than she probably should. It's not enough that she's at any risk of losing control of the car, though. As a cheerleader, she's got very good reflexes.
Finally, parks in a tidy little parking lot in Uptown, where all the upscale boutiques are. Though Bulla may be hoping to be elected Homecoming Queen and has focused a bit on that, she nonetheless wants everyone to have a good homecoming. If she can add a little magic to Wanda's evening by buying her a gorgeous dress? She'll do that. Bulla doesn't fully understand what it's like to live in the lower class - she can't since she's never done so. But while she's been spoiled, she hasn't been spoiled rotten like some aristocrats. She at least has some genuine sympathy for the lower classes, even if she can only imagine what it must be like to not be able to afford nice things.
She makes sure to lead the way into the boutique. She isn't blind to the class divide, and Wanda will get better service if the boutique staff realize right away that Bulla's paying for everything.]
Pick out whatever dress you'd like...although I'd recommend one of those three there, personally.
[She points out three dresses off to the side that she thinks will be flattering with Wanda's build and colouring.]
