Fall Fashions 2

Shelley appeared in the September 1975 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine. In a spread called "The Best of Fall Fashions," she modeled fashions to sew, crochet and kint by Simplicity Patterns. The pictures were taken in The Old Village at the Historic Towne of Smithville in New Jersey, a restoration town "where life is lived as it was circa 1800." And Shelley looked positively lovely in the latest fall fashions for 1975.
 
Shelley modeled "a long lean cardigan in textury reverse stockinette stitch with ribbed trim" and a "tunic and eased skirt" simplicity pattern # 7005.

Yuppie Couple

Shelley starred with Tom Mason in the 1986 TV series Jack and Mike. They played a yuppie couple trying to balance their careers and their marriage. The show debuted on ABC in 1986 and immediately followed the series Moonlighting. The show received decent ratings and had a short run.

1985 Film

Shelley starred in the 1985 TV movie Kicks with soap superstar Anthony Geary. The film was about a couple of trill-seekers who love engaging in dangerous and life-threatening activities.

Iconic Suspenders

Shelley became a Charlie's Angel in 1979. Her character Tiffany Welles was described as a sort of Grace Kelly-Lauren Bacall type of Angel, a very classy Angel. She sported a pair of iconic suspenders in a few Charlie's Angels episodes as well as in some promo pics for the show. The image of Shelley in those suspenders is so familiar to many a Charlie's Angels fan that it has reached icon status in itself.

Exciting News

When Shelley was chosen as the new Charlie's Angel in 1979, everyone was happy and excited to see The Charlie Girl debut as one of Charlie's Cherubs. And what a great choice she was. She was gorgeous, stylish and had an oomph of her own. People predicted she was going to be a success just like Cheryl Ladd was two years prior.

In another pic, Shelley sported an elegant crumply gauze cardigan and harem pants by Monica Tilley for Elon. Shelley looked sensational.
