Find a nice cardigan that is fitted and shapely, i.e., no long boyfriend cardigan, something like a twin set cardigan top.
Wear that over the polo shirt, which you do your own "cheap woman's" alteration on by pulling the excess side fabric to the back and pinning it with a large safety pin to make a waist. (I didn't describe that well but I hope you get what i mean)
Tuck your polo shirt into a nice pair of neutral pants that are flare or neutral leg (skinny pants only if you are actually skinny) and a nice pair of low heels.
Wear your hair up/back in a soft chignon or low bun (or other classy simple style to get it off the collar) and some pearls, diamonds or other studs.
Trust me, this is the formula to get you through this. My condolences
This sounds nice. I would pay for real alterations though. I would shorten the length and the sleeves, take it in, and add darts. I wouldn't tuck it in, but I would wear a cardigan over it.
