Can't figure out my upgrade

Hello all, back again.
I'm here with a question regarding my shadow set.
First off, here's
me.
I currently have around 55 Emblems of Triumph, and only 15 Emblems of Frost.
I can't decide what would be my best upgrade. I thought about the T9 hands and legs, but
I know I'll just end up replacing those with the T10 pieces. As well, I don't think there are much
in the way of Trinkets that are purchasable from Emblems.
So my question is, in your opinion, what do you think would be the best upgrade for me? It's more of my off spec than anything, however since we have multiple healers we all get to alternate off as DPS.
I can't find anything on this online or anything, so any help would be great.
Thanks.

Thank you for the response.
And yes, I know that I need to enchant my gear properly, however I am short on gold
at the moment, due to leveling professions for my alts, and as a result I can't really
fund expensive enchants for pieces I know I'm going to replace within a few days time.
Do you have any other suggestions?
Again thank you.
Oh, and I forgot to mention. I'm in a very small guild, formed between a few friends of mine, and as a result
we don't have access to many raids. I know that this really limits the amount of upgrades that can be found,
however we plan to begin progressing once we all can find time to.
Thanks

The Tier 9 2-piece bonus is quite nice so maybe you'd want to wait a little longer before upgrading those slots. I'm assuming you're looking for upgrades to your Holy set, not Shadow. Correct?
Look into upgrading your cloak and bracers.
Bejeweled Wizard's Bracers
will end up lasting you well into ICC25 (or even until the next x-pac).
Your trinkets are painful to look at. Are those your shadow set trinkets or do you have something better for Holy?

I'm currently logged in my Shadow gear, so what you see there is my shadow set. I originally started
gearing for Holy, since at the time my guild needed raid heals.
However now that everyone seems to have caught up, I'm looking into seriously gearing my Shadow
set. So to answer your question, yes I have better trinkets for holy. Not much better, but better nonetheless.

If you are considering moving to the darkside:
You'll want to try to get
Abyssal Rune
from ToC to replace that forge ember. The easiest way to get into shadow gear may be to farm up another 145 more Triumphs and pick up the rest of the t9 232 shadow set. Grab the gloves and shoulders first as the extra time on VT will help your DPS alot by making it easier to stay at 90% uptime.
Before going looking for SP itemization make sure you are at 288 hit rating so that all your spells, you should be able to get a fair amount for your tier pieces and other gear.
I'd keep your frosts for getting
Volde's Cloak of the Night Sky
This article over on WoW.com
may help you get into ICC ready gear faster. While the items it suggests may not be BiS, they are useful in getting the chance to roll on your BiS ones.
