tl;dr: buy the shoulders & PUG VOA all you can.
If you are dead set against buying your tier pieces, I would recommend replacing the cloak first, since there are wasted itemization points on it.
That being said, I think this is a terrible idea. It sounds like you have limited raiding time, which is understandable, however, adding at least VoA10 to your weekly schedule would likely shortcut your time to 2pc t10.
Were I in your position, I would buy the tier shoulders first and try to run VoA10 & VoA25 each week, or as often as you can. VoA is one of the fastest raids in the game, is very PUG-able, and can probably be added to your schedule fairly easily. If the gloves or legs don't drop by the time you have the frost emblems to purchase the gloves, you can do so or wait & grab the helm or chest (personally I would wait and grab the helm, but that is just me).
Taken as a single frost emblem purchase of 60 emblems, the cloak or belt is more efficient than the tier pieces, but if you factor in the purchase of the shoulders & gloves vs. the cloak and belt, the overall efficiency of the tier purchases over shadow the non-tier pieces. If you have either the gloves or legs drop from VOA, this is even more of a no brainer IMHO.
I'm sure that Aadra or Hashmel will be able to drop some actual math in here for you at some point; I'm at work and really don't the time right now.
