I would say that "whatever works for you" is just fine. If you wind up with many different style sheets, you can always combine them on the server before downloading. Heck, you can even strip white space and comments at the same time if you are worried about the size. The download for even very large CSS and JavaScript files need not be much of a performance hit if you make sure they are gZipped. Unlike images, which are already compressed, these text files shrink a lot when zipped.
