The variable $LATEX2HTMLSTYLES already serves this purpose.
It's default value is $LATEX2HTMLDIR/styles
but you can make it be a list of directories, including this default.
Within a .latex2html-init file simply have a line like:
$LATEX2HTMLSTYLES = "<path-to-my-styles>:$LATEX2HTMLDIR/styles";
LaTeX2HTML searches the working directory first,
then each directory specified in $LATEX2HTMLSTYLES .
It takes the first file that is found.
Technically the `/' should be $dd and `:' should be $envkey
(for systems that use different characters for directory delimiters
and as separators for paths).
Hope this helps.
