Supergirl

In Search of Lost Time - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: When Samantha sees the surveillance video of her transformation into Reign, which was triggered by Lena provoking her, their dialogue is slightly, but very distinctly, different than it was a few minutes earlier. (00:20:15 - 00:25:25)

Homecoming - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: In the scene at the end where Mon-El goes to Kara's to try and console her, right after he sits down and she shifts to lean on him the blanket falls off her shoulder, but in the next shot it's covering her once again. (00:40:35)

Changing - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: Mike and Kara are in the alien bar in the both talking about Mike not controlling his powers. When Mike breaks the glass there is no other glass on the table. In the next shot a glass appears at the edge of the table, in the next shot the glass is gone again. (00:03:30)

Survivors - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When J'onn J'onzz is fighting Miss Martian in the ring, she punches him into a wall, leaving a massive dent. She missed the next punch, and the plaster on the right hand side of the dent falls out, but the plaster on the left is fine. Miss Martian then throws J'onn across the room, and in the background, the dent is visible, but it is now the left hand side of the dent where the plastering is missing and the plastering on the right is now mostly in place.

Casual Person

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: Before Kara uses her heat vision against Vartox she gets some dust on her suit, then she stands up and the dust is gone.

Solitude - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: When Alex brings donuts to try to convince Kara to come back to the D.E.O., Kara picks up 2 donuts which suddenly change to 1 once she sits down, and then back to 2 a few shots later in a wide shot.

THGhost

Human for a Day - S1-E7

Character mistake: When Kara breaks her arm, she says that she doesn't need to go to a hospital because the bone will heal when her powers return. She would still need a splint or a cast to ensure that the bone sets in place properly; leaving it untreated runs the risk of a physical deformity or other unforeseen complications down the road.

Midvale - S3-E6

Plot hole: After Kara and Alex are run off the road, Kara is convinced by "Noel Neill", revealed later to be J'onn, to stop using her powers. From context, J'onn had to have been summoned by Eliza, but in 2007, she would still think he's just Hank Henshaw; she doesn't learn he's not, or even that he's a shapeshifter, until 2016, as seen in season 1's "Myriad", well after Kara and Alex have grown up.

Answer: Another part of why the change was that it's cold in Canada in the winter and the old costume didn't protect her from it, whereas the new one is nice and warm.

Answer: I can't say for certain, so I'm surmising that the change was to "catch up" with the other Arrowverse shows, particularly Arrow and The Flash, whose lead characters have undergone various upgrades and redesigns of their superhero suits over the years; after four seasons, Kara's probably just felt a little stale. And I believe the change in hairstyle was Melissa Benoist's personal decision and had nothing to do with the character.
