Are the Spring 2010 Trends Right for You?

I don't follow or write about trends much. Why? Each woman's style is so individual that it's impossible to know if a current trend will work for her. For example, a woman whose main style is Elegant will not be comfortable with the current military style. It's best to decide if a current trend fits your style. If not, then it's not something you should be purchasing.
Given that caveat, here are the Spring 2010 trends, according to Women's Wear Daily.
1. Americana. Red, white, and blue. Stripes, stars. Denim.
2. Country. Straw, prints, more denim.
3. Tribal prints.
4. Trench coats.
5. Draping.
6. Texture. Gentle, like puckers and wrinkles.
7. Military. Camouflage, dog tags.
8. Utilitarian. Sporty, khaki, zippers,
9. Cutouts and keyholes.
10. Underwear as outerwear. Lingerie on the outside.
11. Sheer, see-though looks.
A few of these trends are OK for me--I'll go for draping, texture, and trench coats. I'm not the type for military or utilitarian. And I'm definitely not going for the underwear as outerwear.
Are you going to adopt any of these trends? Have you seen some trends that I haven't mentioned here?
