##New in 0.2.0 version

Overlay, dialog and closeButton styles now accept an object that represent your styles.

If you not declare any style, skyLight will apply the default styles, but if you send an object with one or more properties, your object will override the default property.

####overlayStyles: (Object) An object that represent the styles of overlay:

//Default overlay SkyLight styles:
overlayStyles: {
    position: 'fixed',
    top: 0,
    left: 0,
    width: '100%',
    height: '100%',
    zIndex: 99,
    backgroundColor: 'rgba(0,0,0,0.3)'
}

####dialogStyles: (Object) An object that represent the styles of dialog.

//Default dialog SkyLight styles:
dialogStyles: {
    width: '50%',
    height: '400px',
    position: 'fixed',
    top: '50%',
    left: '50%',
    marginTop: '-200px',
    marginLeft: '-25%',
    backgroundColor: '#fff',
    borderRadius: '2px',
    zIndex: 100,
    padding: '10px',
    boxShadow: '0 0 4px rgba(0,0,0,.14),0 4px 8px rgba(0,0,0,.28)'
}

####closeButtonStyle: (Object) An object that represent the styles of close button

//Default close button SkyLight styles:
closeButtonStyle: {
    cursor: 'pointer',
    float: 'right',
    fontSize: '1.6em',
    margin: '-15px 0'
}

An Example with new styles, overriding dialog background color to red

var dialogStyles = {
    backgroundColor: '#f03'
};

<SkyLight ref="myModal" title="TITLE FOR MODAL" dialogStyles={dialogStyles}>Modal Content</SkyLight>
