Answer 1

just turn up in a pair of dungarees, checked shirt and scraggy hair

Answer 2

1940s is a bit early for rockabilly -- you're looking for a 50s look. A bet is Elvis or Eddie Cochran. Check out the images linked below.

Answer 3

Pin Curls! You know, old school Marilyn Monroe? Just Google image search Rockabilly fashin + Hair for other images...

Answer 4

Get straight bangs and wear a flower in your hair

but if you are not willing to cut your hair, try fake

Bettie Page bangs (link included)

or Victory rolls maybe a pompadoure? be creative, try a

cat eye and red lipstick to go along with it:D I added a video
