More March Me-Made-itude and a Plea for Help.

I me-made it all the way through my business trip to Delaware, culminating in this refashioned reversible skirt:

worn this way on the flight home:

I got politely patted down going through security at the airport because, the TSA woman explained to me, I was wearing a skirt! Note to self . . .

Back to the office in this get-up:

Which (provided anyone is looking) has been seen before. The only new bit in that outfit is this newly thrifted suede shirt:

I love the feel and the color of this shirt, but it is BOXY. I am already boxy. I do not need boxy clothing. So help me, please: how do I give this top some shape? Darts? Tucks? I really want to figure this out, because my other obsession is thrifted men's silk shirts, and I'd like to give them some shape as well. Suggestions, anyone?
