This is how you can style external links with a favicon image:

a[href*="http"] {
    background: url('favicon.png') no-repeat 100% 0;
    background-size: 16px 16px;
    padding-right: 19px;

We set the path to the image we want to insert, specify no-repeat so we only get one copy inserted, and then specify the position as 100% of the way over to the right of the text content, and 0 pixels from the top.
