Spring and Summer 1974 catalog
Shelley appeared in many catalogs throughout her modeling career, from the late '60s to the late '70s. Mail-order catalogs were at the height of its popularity at the time. They were big-book size publications that contained a list and pictures of the general merchandise from, usually, a department store that were available for purchase and delivery straight to the homes of their customers. Everything from homeware to toys were featured in these catalogs... as well as garments and the latest fashion pieces. Shelley appeared in many spreads throughout the JCPenney Spring and Summer 1974 catalog.

In the spread called "Casuals Get Together," Shelley wore an array of carefree, tailored skirts and tops that were paired up for a casual spring-fresh look. She wore the Geometric Print Shirt (which had short sleeves, front-button styling, and a pointed collar) over the Summer Skirt With The Cool, Crisp Look Of Linen (which was a welt-seamed A-line skirt with waistband styling, front tab-and-button trim, and a back zipper closure). Matching medium-heeled two-toned footwear and a simple clip on her hair finished her look. She also wore the Bright Knit Top (a short-sleeved slipover-style top with a rib-knit body as well as contrasting collar and cuffs) over another Summer Skirt With The Cool, Crisp Look Of Linen (this time, an A-line skirt with an inverted front pleat, a waistband with belt loops, a vinyl buckled belt, and a side zipper closure). Another simple clip on her hair finished her look. And Shelley looked summer casual and very well put together.
