Hi Mark, styles in Pivot are different than css styles in HTML, this is feature discussed since the beginning of Pivot :-) . But the visual appearance of components is handled by the Skin (where for example there is a pre-defined color palette), and any Component has a related skin visual counterpart ... there are some global settings (color palette, fonts, etc) in the skin but components draw themselves.
I agree that we could improve this, so be free to add a JIRA as Improvement, or write/attach some test/idea/sample code. Some old discussion here: http://apache-pivot-users.399431.n3.nabble.com/can-we-use-css-style-sheet-in-pivot-td3415299.html Maybe using inline styles could help in your case now, some info here for example: http://apache-pivot-users.399431.n3.nabble.com/Apache-pivot-color-scheme-td4022780.html Tell us for more info.
