Shelley wore several outfits in the ad. One of which was a jaunty schoolgirl jumper, McCall's pattern 2901, in plaid. She wore it over a white ribbed-cotton turtleneck with long sleeves, matching hose and heeled footwear. A leather shoulder bag with stud details, a bracelet with studs details and a knitted hat finished her look. Shelley looked ready for those European day trips.
