How to add padding between options in select input?

Question

How to add padding to my select input options? Here is my CSS and all options seem below each other without any spacing (in terms of height of option) I have a CSS reset.. aside from that how can I give the options a bit of height to make it look good?

.upload-input select {
    display: block;
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #888;
    width: 616px;
    background: #fff;
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
}

Update

I applied the suggested css. It does not look right.

Answer 1

Try

.upload-input select option { padding: 6px;}

You might have to fiddle with the .upload-input select css though.

Like:

.upload-input select {height: 35px;}
