Shelley was one of the models who regularly appeared on the pages of Seventeen magazine since the beginning of her modeling career. In fact, one of her first covers was for the November 1964 issue of the mag (For more, check out: Seventeen Cover). She also regularly appeared on other Seventeen magazine outings such as their booklets/guide books. In 1966, she appeared on the cover of the Seventeen Dating Guide booklet. (For more, check out: Dating Guide 1966). She also appeared in ads for Seventeen. In the 1967 ad with the tagline "You've Arrived," a pic of Shelley being admired by several male models was featured (it's from the same pic set used for the Seventeen Dating Guide booklet cover). In the ad, she wore McCall's pattern number 8548. It was a misses' shift dress that was gathered at the neck and sleeves with self fabric and was above-the-knee in length. Matching hose and pumps finished her look. Fancy earrings and a matching bracelet accessorized her look. And Shelley looked like she had definitely arrived.
