Yes  you can apply CSS to SVG  but you need to match the element  just as when styling HTML   If you just want to apply it to all SVG paths  you could use  for example    path       fill  blue       External CSS appears to override the path s fill attribute  at least in WebKit and Gecko-based browsers I tested   Of course  if you write  say   lt path style  fill  green  gt  then that will override external CSS as well

If you go into the source code of an SVG file you can change the color fill by modifying the fill property    lt svg fill   3F6078  height  24  viewBox  0 0 24 24  width  24  xmlns  http   www w3 org 2000 svg  xmlns xlink  http   www w3 org 1999 xlink  gt   lt  svg gt     Use your favorite text editor  open the SVG file and play around with it

I came across an amazing resource on css-tricks  https   css-tricks com using-svg   There are a handful of solutions explained there    I preferred the one that required minimal edits to the source svg  and also didn t require it to be embedded into the html document  This option utilizes the  lt object gt  tag     Add the svg file into your html using  lt object gt   I also declared html attributes width and height  Using these width and heights the svg document does not get scaled  I worked around that using a css transform  scale      statement for the svg tag in my associated svg css file    lt object type  image svg xml  data  myfile svg  width  64  height  64  gt  lt  object gt    Create a css file to attach to your svn document  My source svg path was scaled to 16px  I upscaled it to 64 with a factor of four  It only had one path so I did not need to select it more specifically  however the path had a fill attribute so I had to use  IMPORTANT to force the css to take precedent    svg2       width  64px  height  64px      transform  scale 4     path       fill   333  IMPORTANT      Edit your target svg file  before the opening  lt svg tag  to include a stylesheet  Note that the href is relative to the svg file url     lt  xml-stylesheet type  text css  href  myfile css    gt
