I have recently acquired a few Phoebes....I love the leather more so than most of the newer handbags.

I am debating on a nude Edie that I have versus trying to find a lighter Phoebe instead. While I love the nude color....the leather just doesn't seem as nice as Phoebe. Then my other issue is I have 3 Phoebes now, is that too many? 😉 Does an Edie even count as a different style?

So those of you that have both Edie and Phoebe, which one do you feel is holding up better? Does the Edie leather soften up much? Which one is more comfortable to carry?

Thanks for your opinions/input!
 
At one point I had 7 (maybe even 8?) Phoebes. So no, no such thing as too many. I don't have an Edie but I'm dying for the new pink one with silver hardware - not sure what the color is called.
 
Does anyone have the birch color lock? I'd love to see IRL photos. It is hard to determine color with stock photos. Also, they have it listed with a longer drop in the description. I wonder if it really has a longer drop or if it was an error when some typed the description.

I looked at one today (sorry didn't take pics or try on). The color to me is a light grey - similar to the grey birch that the Phoebe, Kelsey came in a while back. I cannot imagine the drop would be different than the other Edies.
 
I looked yesterday at Dillards. The drop is the same. I need someone to help me decide on color. I'm torn between the black, saddle, and burch grey. I really want the brown but I don't like the oval logo. I wish it came in light luggage or a carmel color.
