When people ask me what I want my summer to look like, I'm saying any of the adorable plushies from Jellycat's new summer collection.
SHOP THE JELLYCAT SUMMER COLLECTION
Jellycat took fans to outer space in its previous collection with space-rodeo peanuts, happy comets, and even aliens—but this launch feels like it came straight from the shores of Cape Cod. You have 14 different characters to choose from, ranging in price from $38 to $75. But shop quickly; we’re expecting the summer collection to sell out fast.
One special note: Although not part of the new summer collection, the brand's highly sought-after Amuseables Coral—it came out in 2025—just became back in stock, and people are beyond thrilled.
I’m originally from Maine, so I love the coastal aesthetic. (Just look at that adorable striped sweater!) I also adore Bartholomew Bear, a cuddly character dressed in fisherman’s gear that makes him look like he just stepped off the boat. Plus, Keli Pelican looks like the perfect companion for a beach vacation, as it sits around 13 inches tall and features a long orange beak.
Amanda Fama, GH’s senior editor for deals and trends, is from the coast of New Jersey—and this is her new favorite collection. “One look at these coastal characters makes me want to hop in the car and visit Long Beach Island for the weekend,” she says.
As you can see, this set also has a bunch of new beach-themed animals, like a textured manatee and a smiling carp. But don’t worry, it isn’t just animals: We also think the Happy Life Ring and cheeky little Rollerskating Sun are worth adding to your cart this summer.
If any of these warm-weather loveables have captured your heart, I recommend securing your favorite before it’s too late. We predict they’ll sell out before the season even arrives.
