1. Try one of these sites: http://www.milieux.com/costume/ http://www.siue.edu/COSTUMES/history.html Don't forget to follow the links to other sites for more information. I'm sure your questions can be answered somewere along these chains. I use these, and other sites for research to make my illustrations more historically accurate.
2. OH, you need a lot of information. I encorage you to buy books for these things (I have lots of them and believe me, they are a pleasure to look at). Here we go! For shoes: http://www.headoverheelshistory.com/ For jewelery(it's a list, but you can use this site to look up other info's in fashion): http://www.fashion-era.com/jewellery.htm Corset (it's an accessory and it was very important): http://www.essortment.com/all/historyofcors_rmue.htm And more: http://www.themorningnews.org/archives/opinions/womens_fashion_part_iv_accessories.php http://www.fashion-era.com/1950s/1950s_2_fashion_accessories.htm I also think you should search accessories in each country (the most important for fashion history: France, England, Japan,...you know what I mean, different cultures). Plus, take into consideration how their development was influenced by clime, politics etc. Also search from the time line point of view. If you need more help, don't hesitate to ask.
