Shelley in a spread for Seventeen magazine, 1971
Shelley appeared in many issues of Seventeen magazine from the 1960s to the 1970s. In 1971, she appeared in their June issue. In a spread called "Less is More When You're Under the Sun," she wore the latest fashion piece of the season, hotpants. The mag recommended that girls "liberate their legs and let the sun shine in," add a cool top and feel the freedom of the latest summer fashions.

Shelley wore a knitted striped tank top and hotpants set. The top was striped until just below the chest before it becomes a solid color. The hotpants were of similar stripes as the top but with a wavy difference. The set was by Duo by Granny Takes a Knit. Matching knitted bracelets and heart-shaped hair clips finished her look.

Shelley also wore a side-tied crop top with ruffled cap sleeves over a pair of matching hotpants with ruffled legs. The mismatched yet somehow matching striped prints made the outfit a summer standout. It was by Betsey Johnson for Alley Cat. Chokers by Isis completed her look. Fun braided hair finished her look. Shelley, of course, looked fab and ready to hit the beach in her outfits.
