Use the “Lobotomized Owl” Selector

It may have a strange name but using the universal selector (*) with the adjacent sibling selector (+) can provide a powerful CSS capability:

  1. * + * {
  2. margin-top: 1.5em;
  3. }

In this example, all elements in the flow of the document that follow other elements will receive margin-top: 1.5em.
