    I want to add my own styles directly to the lifestyle pro stylesheet. It's been a while since I have done this. Can anyone provide me with an example of what the css stylesheet would look like? New styles would go above or below the current styles?

    I have been using Design Palette Pro plugin to see what changes I want to make, but I have enough changes that I would like to try to add on to the stylesheet.

    Thank you!

    I usually add my own styles at the end of the default styles and before the media queries. I then add a comment that these styles were added by me, this way you can easily navigate to all your added styles in one place.
    Do the same for any added styles within media queries, ie at the end of each media query.
    They need to go below the default styles in order to override them.
