That's a lot of questions! Remember that Argentina is not just Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires is extremely fashionable. I've been living in Argentina for four months after living in NYC for 7 years and Buenos Aires reminds me a lot of NYC. The women and men on the street always look good. You rarely see a woman without a pair of high heels on. I've also driven through the Patagonian region of Argentina where the cities are much smaller and there are many small towns which don't even have paved roads. Homes may not have hot water or even electricity. A gas station in town is where people congrugate to watch televsion - if there is a gas station. In these areas, fashion is a different matter. People are dressed comfortably, in working clothes, and with more eye to the weather. The older men always wear hats. Gauchos wear blanket-like ponchos that are woven so tightly they keep the rain out. People in the towns don't speak English where in Buenos Aires many people do. Kids go to school from 8:00am - noon, go home for siesta, and then return from 4:00pm - 7:00pm. Some schools teach in only English for the afternoon classes. For religion, there is a large jewish culture in Buenos Aires, but most people are Catholic. Driving the roads outside of Buenos Aires, you see alters on the road sides everywhere - they are often painted bright red, with bright red flags, and surrounded by bottles of water or other kinds of donations.
Argentina is vast. Buenos Aires is very different from the rest of the country and both have a lot to offer.
I'm still in Argentina now - and I update my blog almost daily- http://jamiesue.typepad.com

First you might want to check wikipedia.org and from there you might want to narrow your search with some official pages from the National or Provincial governments in Argentina. Good luck!

there are all types of religion there, a lot of jewish people and catholic people mostly.
fashion is the same as here, exept people are more into looking good there. girls usually have side bangs. the boys have short hair or long hair.
