How to use CSS with javascript

I'm using PHP to return data from my database and then using javascript to allow the person to add it. And I can't make a div change its background color and add borders etc. 

<div class="selectedStuff"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
   $('#addButton').on('click', function( event ) {
        $('.selectedStuff').append($('#search_term').val() + '<br>'); 
   });          
</script>
<style type="text/css">
   .selectedStuff{
       background-color: yellow;
       margin-top: 50px;
   }
</style>

Any help on this matter would be great

$('#addButton').on('click', function( event ) {
                var searchedValue = $('#search_term').val(); 
                var divHolder = $('.selectedStuff'); 
                divHolder.append(searchedValue + '<br>').css({
                    'background-color': 'yellow',
                    'margin-top': '50px'
               }); 
           });
