Keep Shield or Trade for Better Equips

Hi, well I made a huge decision and traded almost all of my remaining %DEX equips for a 27 attack 21% STR VIP Shield and a BFC that I'm content with. I originally intended to get more %STR but the nice shield took up most of my trade-value, leaving me with only 3/4 of my intended %STR. Should I just keep this shield and upgrade slowly or just trade it for a mediocre shield and things I'm missing, such as shoes, pendant, and eye accessory?

For additional information, the only equips I'd need upgrading are:
6% STR top and bottom
3% STR shoes
MoN
No eye accessory
