Mary Berry is known for many things: being the current host of Quick Cooking; being the former host of Great British Bake Off; being one of the best cake-makers in the country and for wearing the most eclectic mix of brightly coloured and patterned jackets whenever she's on our screens. In fact, the 84-year-old has a uniform of sorts - bootleg jeans, a vibrant jacket, a blow-dried blonde bob and a swipe of pearlescent pink lipstick. And we can see why - it simply never lets her down.

Interestingly, and luckily for those who want to snap up her jackets, despite being worth a reported £15 million, she actually regularly shops on the high street for her show-stoppers. Indeed, she's worn jackets by the likes of Marks and Spencer, French Connection, Zara (remember floral bomber from GBBO in 2012?) and Debenhams which has only made her fans love her more.

Opening up about her style, Mary did once reveal to YOU Magazine that she has nearly 50 jackets to choose from in her wardrobe. How does she find the time to wear them all? Well, she doesn't. "Many I don’t wear", she said in the same interview. "I had a lot of floral ones for Bake Off but I have now gone back to preferring the plain." Take plain with a pinch of salt however as Mary may veer from patterns these days but she never opts for anything boring. Usually, her jackets are at least brightly coloured… You can check them out below:
