I don't think you can go wrong either way, to be honest. I had it in my mind that I was going in for the navy tote. Then I saw the bronze and fell in love with that one. DH pointed out the details in the cornflower tote. I was torn between them, decided against the navy and knowing that I owned the navy Sophia, it was a little easier to tell myself, I have a navy purse.

I also loved the silt hobo, so I ended up going with that and the cornflower tote. I may still end up with the bronze tote before it's all over.

I don't remember seeing the cornflower Phoebe, but I did see the blue (cornflower?) in the Madison Hobo, and I really liked that one as well. I was just drawn to the silt more.

As I mentioned somewhere else, everyone here has been so wonderful and helpful, I'm just glad that I could help with something that it seems many had interest in with the new releases. I know I was interested in them as well. Heck, I'm still looking at mine before I cut tags because I tend to question myself a lot. LOL!

Don't even get me started on this, lol! I hate how Coach never seems to have a good selection of greens. I ended up getting a MK saffiano carryall tote in Palm, that is really similar the Christie Carryall because I wanted green and Coach once again is not doing any Spring/Summer bold greens. <_<

I bought the Jade Isabelle and an Olive Jayden Carryall thinking they would satisfy me, but I'm still waiting for that perfect hunter or dark green. They have made some beautiful brighter greens (thinking like emerald patent Maggie or emerald legacy), and I either didn't like the bag, or it just wasn't the right shade. They have a new Bleeker mini Riley that has a green panel that is so close to what I want... so we know they are capable of greatness... now why won't they do it for an entire bag! :pout:

I have the Jade Isabelle too! And while I love it a lot, I was really hoping for more true greens to debut this Spring/Summer.

There was a really pretty forest green Spectator Kristin Hobo from a few years ago that was to die for! Did you ever see that one?

I remember it, but it wasn't that color I was looking for... I would love something the color of the bleecker bottle green from a few years ago, but I didn't care for the bags they made it in. Or even the green Zoe - I sometimes want to kick myself for not getting more of those bags when they were in the stores....

They're both beautiful colors but the cornflower looks different depending on which leather you get. In the Phoebe it's very rich and shiny and buttery looking, but in the saffiano it looks a little more muted and matte, like it's been powdered, if that makes sense.

The N/S and E/W totes are completely stunning in the navy though so if that's the bag you're looking at I would go with navy all the way. It's so classy and chic.

I went to my local FP store yesterday with a 100 off 300 coupon and a 25% off Facebook coupon not really sure of what I wanted except probably something blue. I walked in and was immediately drawn to the cornflower blue Phoebe and Hobo they had displayed at the front of the store. They even had the Chambray mini borough bag and I liked it, but it was excluded. I also looked at the cornflower mini tote and E/W navy tote. Boy, it was a tough decision, but I walked away with the Hobo in Cornflower. I didn't like the way the mini hung on me crossbody-I liked it better using as a shoulder bag. I still would like to have one of the E/W totes in a navy or even another color. I really love the way the hobo looked and felt and it is different than my Phoebes!!
