Paint It Blue '71 B

Shelley appeared not only on the cover of Seventeen magazine's March 1971 issue but also on the main spread featured in the issue. Entitled "500 Boys Say," the spread explained to readers what boys wanted girls to look and be like at the time (soooooo retro.) Five hundred boys, with ages ranging from  16 to 24, from different parts of the US, were quizzed about their opinions on their ideal girl. The results of the survey were made part of the spread.

In the spread called "46.8% Say Paint It Blue," she wore an outfit that was great for casual and fun activities, like painting, and in blue of course. She wore a quilted top that had multiple zippers on the pockets and the off-center front. She wore it over a pair of start-snug pants that ended in flares. Both were by Fox Run. She finished her look with a scarf by Symphony, a fun belt by Vicario and footwear by Viner Bros. boots. With her hair in pigtails, Shelley looked ready to have fun painting on that day.
