on Sears Great Catalog Buys, June 1975
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. Sears is an American chain of department stores founded in 1892. Aside from the big-book catalogs, they came out with tabloid-sized catalogs that featured items on sale. In June 17 of 1975, Shelley appeared on the pages of Sears Great Catalog Buys.

appeared on a fashion spread
for Sears Great Catalog Buys, June 1975
She appeared in the spread which featured knit tops paired with casual flared pants. She wore the flame red and cream Striped Knit Top (a pullover style top with a high, square neckline and slightly puffed short sleeves) over the cream-colored Cuffed Demin Jeans (a trouser style jean with a wide waistband, front slash pockets and flared cuffed legs). Matching cream canvas and rope-wedge-heeled footwear as well as a thin woven red belt (of braided vinyl with a gold-colored prong buckle) finished her look. She also wore the white Open-Stitch Knit T-Shirt (a pullover T-shirt with a crew neckline and short sleeves) over the grass green Flared Twill Pants (trousers with a hook-and-eye closing on the waistband, side-seam pockets, and front and back darts). Casual sandal-style clogs finished her look. A matching bangle accessorized her look. And Shelley looked cool and ready for those warm summer days.
