The general rule is to breathe out when exerting, which in this case would mean, doing so when shrugging upwards. That said, I wouldn't worry too much, and would allow your breathing to come naturally.

I breath in and rep, and out on the downward motion of the shrug. For other lifts like squats and bench etc, I breathe out when exerting.
