Add css to a block Magento 1

Question

In Magento 2, there is a box to place custom CSS to any block. enter image description here

However, I don't see that as an option in Magento 1 enter image description here

How do I add custom CSS to a block in Magento 1?

Edit for possible dupe: I want to know how to just add some css to a block, is there not a way to just do that in Magento 1? Do I have to create a custom css and layout class for every block? If that is the case, can I have someone explain a little more clearly how to do this?

Edit for comments: It won't save an in file style block enter image description here enter image description here

• MagenX: Possible duplicate of Custom css for custom block/phtml.
• MagenX: do not use magento interface for css updates, create custom css file with custom path and keep all your changes.
• Morgan Smith: I looked at that question but I don't really understand the answer
• Morgan Smith: Why does the interface exist if I'm not suppose to use it?
• Pawan: You can directly add css using <style> tag

Not exactly same as M2 but you can do it via Design tab> Layout as XML

So edit CMS page, add XML entry to Lauout as XML. Make sure your js and css is in place and you have following options.
