Certainly the best way to do this is to define some environment with a
label, etc. and appropriate sorts of margins. I'm attaching a module I
wrote to do something similar. The right margin can be adjusted by
redefining \rightmargin within the list.
For enumitem, there's a very nice explanation of list parameters in the
docs, here:
http://ctan.math.utah.edu/ctan/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/enumitem/enumitem.pdf
See p. 3. You can just do things like:
\begin{description}[rightmargin = 1em]
\item ....
\end{description}
in LaTeX, of course. In LyX, you do Insert> Itemize Options on the first
item, and put "rightmargin = ..." into that inset. For one-off uses,
this would be fine.
To define a new list type, we can use enumitem like this:
\newlist{mydesc}{description}{1}
\setlist{mydesc}{rightmargin=1em}
This would act exactly like the regular description environment, but
with a right margin of 1em. You can add other modifiers to the setlist
command as you wish (e.g., font=\sffamily\bfseries to set the label font
to bold sans serif). And now we can do this in local layout, or in a module:
Style MyDesc
CopyStyle description
LatexName mydesc
Premable
\newlist{mydesc}{description}{1}
\setlist{mydesc}{rightmargin=1em}
