Simplicity The Fashion Magazine for Women Who Sew was a booklet the Simplicity Pattern Company came out with to showcase their latest patterns. The Simplicity Pattern Company had been manufacturing sewing patterns since 1927, giving fashionistas on a budget and sewing aficionados the ability to create clothes in a reliable manner. The booklet featured the latest patterns Simplicity had come up with at the time. It also showed readers what they could do with them and how to play around with them by using fabrics and trims to personalize the fashion must-haves featured in it.

In the spread called "Flair... with Baubles and Bags," Shelley modeled Simplicity Pattern 8854, a sleeveless pantjumper with a lowered round neckline, a front zipper closing and roomy straight legs. She wore it with a black long-sleeved turtleneck rib knit top and matching footwear. A fancy belt and hairclip finished her look. Around her shoulder was The Bag, which had a roomy pouch and a wide strap. It could also be worn around the waist if preferred. And Shelley looked fab as always.
