FWIW, I've played with this a bit recently.  The example below makes an HTML 
document with "Pay attention to this text" in large, red, indented font.

I prefer to put the CSS in a separate file, but I think it's straightforward to 
include the equivalent statements directly in the Org file.

#+STYLE:    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./special-block.css" />

* test

#+BEGIN_ATTENTION

Pay attention to this text!

#+END_ATTENTION

###### Contents of special-block.css follow

# .ATTENTION
# {
# font-size: 40px;
# text-indent: 50px;
# color: red;
# }
