There's a new trend that's come into full force at the dinner table lately, and it's the playful and chunky 'bubble' tableware. There are a few designer brands that released this style a little while ago, but only recently are we finally starting to see high-street retailers jumping on the trend, and with prices that won't make your eyes water.

The latest retailer to jump on this trend is M&S and it is the most affordable and nicest version we've spotted so far. And there's still some items in stock (and some items are sold out already but we've been told it will be returning imminently). Here's why you should grab some before they completely sell out.

Not even sure what this 'bubble' trend is? Ultimately it's a piece of crockery (it could be a plate, bowl, a small side plate or a mug and saucer) with an inflated looking bubble lip. It's quite exaggerated and some versions can look a little *too* chunky for our liking, but when done tastefully, it looks chic, and can add a playful and fun look to the dining table.

Wonderful bubble plates in lots of beautiful colours

They come in a range of colours, thickness and sizes, and are perfect for serving anything a little saucy as nothing will fall off the edge. It's the ideal vessel for creamy pasta's or saucy beans and these ones from M&S are our favourite pieces we've spotted so far and we LOVE how affordable they are. Oh and they're also dishwasher safe. What a win!
