I've seen a few ways to do this. Some cleaner than others. As far as I've 
seen,you don't have much success by adding border and outline to the same 
element.  

If you want to avoid having to style an interior element, there's one trick 
which will work in CSS3 supported browsers:

box-shadow: 0 0 0 5px #445578, 0 0 0 10px #776678;

The fourth value is offset. I think all the modern browsers support multiple 
box shadows. So this should allow you to add as many "borders" as you need. The 
added bonus is that box-shadow doesn't participate in the layout like border 
does.
