when we had to wear a polo shirt to work, my department had all women in it, so we all were pearls with our polos.....everyone loved it

You're getting a variety of opinions here, OP. Maybe your best bet is to ask your boss what it's OK to wear with your work outfit. The fact that your employer has just OK'd wearing the corporate logo polo to work with a prescribed color of jeans suggests to me that they are looking for a consistent work "uniform" look -- which to me means minimal embellishment and keeping the focus on the company colors and logo and looking like a "regulation staff member". Your boss can tell you if it's OK to wear colorful scarves, jacket over the logo, or statement jewelry with your uniform.

I would say "no" to the jacket over the top, because I think your boss wants the logo to show...otherwise the jacket would be cute.

As for the scarfs, belts, and jewelry, I wouldn't even bother to ask. That is just inviting someone with probably no fashion sense to say "No." Just do your own thing with dressing it up...and yes, you can dress up a polo with accessories.

I'd happily pass on wearing jeans because you can't pay me enough to wear a polo shirt. They are completely unflattering on me. If you must wear one, I'd add a blazer in navy or black.

...okay, I'm pretty sure beads, bows, belts and chrystal buttons are not the way to go and would not be allowed.

I agree. Pearls or round silver bead necklace with silver hoop earrings looks great. I wear that look all the time at work.

One of those Isaac or Joan scarves would completely cover up the collar and logo. Add a jacket and you could wear strappy pumps and dangle earrings. Just kidding. I'd go for the casual polo look and resign myself.
