Or you could misuse classes like this:

.f10px { font-size: 10px; }
.f12px { font-size: 12px; }
.f14px { font-size: 14px; }
.red { color: red; }
.white { color: white; }
.bold { font-weight: 800; }

with markup like

<span class="f14px bold red">fubar</span>

You get the idea... The important thing is that removal of style 
attribute doesn't prevent anything that can be done nowadays, but it 
would be harder to create documents that mix markup with presentation.
