Sportscoats '72

Shelley appeared in a spread for Sears' 1972 fall and winter catalog entitled "The Sportscoats Are Coming." She modeled a bright red "blazer-syled jacket in melton cloth of wool and nylon" over a crisp white turtleneck top and dark trousers. Her outfit was finished off with a pair of dark gloves and a matching red hat/skull cap. And Shelley was just absolutely gorgeous in it.

Tabloid Overdrive

When Shelley joined the cast of Charlie's Angels in 1979, the tabloids went into overdrive. The interest in Charlie's newest Angel was so intense, that so many articles about her, as well as news features, came out.  "I couldn’t believe it. What was I doing in the evening news?" Shelley exclaimed at the time. Of course, some were true and some were, well, iffy. But publicity was publicity, and the frenzy generated so much interest in her, it catapulted her to Hollywood Superstardom before she even filmed an episode of the series.

Another Stepfather DVD

The Stepfather DVD with Terry, Shelley and Jill on the cover

Just love versions of The Stepfather DVD that features Shelley prominently on the cover. As earlier expressed, Terry O'Quinn did a fantastic job a the title character, but Shelley and Jill Schoelen also turned out fine performances and should rightfully appear on the cover as well. Both women appear on this DVD cover, but it would be great if their names were to be on it as well.

Shelley and The Boys

Shelley in the 1971 Seventeen magazine spread
entitled 500 Boys Say

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.

Shelley was photographed, along with two other models, playing badminton with a pair of boys. Her mini knit outfit in bright colors showed readers where her heart is. The knits worn by all the models were by Charlie's Girls. Hmmm, was that a sign of things to come? Oh, and while Shelley was on the front cover of the issue, Jaclyn Smith - for Breck -  was on the back cover. Hmmm, another sign? Hmmm...

Shelley showed the boys who had the ball in her yellow smock-style coat and matching kerchief. Her red jeans were by Lady Wrangler. Her boots (with added decals) were by by Olof Daughter, a popular brand at the time. Shelley was so cute.

A Smile for the Paparazzi

Shelley had a ready smile for the paparazzi back in 1979 when she was hounded by them upon the announcement of her Angel-dom. I love her cool light-colored outfit, but that airline pin and those dark movie star sunglasses really chic-ed her look up.

Lot-A-Lash

Shelley appeared in Yardley's 1971 print ad for Lot-A-Lash. This is a re-post but a much better version of the ad. Shelley  was just so pretty in this, so fresh, so young, and that's why she got away with it .

Jackie Plays Billiards

Shelley played Jackie Shea in her 1986 TV series Jack and Mike, 

and many publicity shots of her came out at the time. 

She's playing billiards in this one.
