Camel hair or cashmere?

I am looking to purchase a new blazer. In my closet I already have a black corduroy, a black cashmere, and a black wool with gold buttons. I have just ordered a navy blazer and should have that in a few days.

At this point I would like something of a lighter color and have decided that a camel hair would work well for a spring/winter coat. I am looking at 2 right now, one is pure camel hair and the other is 100% cashmere. Both are the exact same color. As mentioned, I already have the black cashmere blazer and I really love it.

So, what say you? Which should I go with and why?

Thanks.

Black is not a good blazer color for most people. Therefore, another cashmere might hardly end duplicating things. Besides, it probably will be lighter than camel hair.

Thank you for your reply. I went with the camel hair but the seller of the item failed to ship so I have now ordered the cashmere.

What fits and you actually like is often a good start point in selecting clothes.
