 <p>You can use a common selector for your 'a lot of styles!':</p> <pre><code>#f1, #f2 { a lot of styles! } #f1 { order: 1; } #f2 { order: 2; } </code></pre> <p>A proper alternative, to reduce the first selector, is to assign a class to each element, for example .common and replacing <code>#f1, #f2, ...</code> by <code>.common</code></p> <p>More information : <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/sel_element_comma.asp" rel="nofollow">CSS element,element Selector</a></p>
