WooCommerce isn't letting me center my elements

Hi I already posted a question but as I was looking into my problem I found out that as im trying to style my WooCommerce Mystile theme through a child theme using the help of firebug all my styles work on any element except when I try to center it. Example of me trying to center my Title & Navigation:

h1.site-title {
text-align:center;
margin: auto;
padding:0px;
border:0px;
float:none;

ul#main-nav.nav.fl.parent {
text-align:center;
margin: auto;
padding:0px;
border:0px;
float:none;
}

is there something wrong because like I said ALL my other styles work just fine like border padding & margin

Have you checked the directory for a themed/child CSS file? I was having trouble with changing a font size in a footer until I realized that the parent theme would override the custom CSS.

No im definently overriding the parent, every thing but center that is. I even add !important to make sure.
