How to centrally align a float: left ul/li navigation menu with css?

Question

So I have the following CSS in place to display a horizontal navigation bar using:

.navigation ul {
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
}

.navigation li {
  float: left;
  margin: 0 1.15em;
  /*    margin: 0 auto;*/
}

.navigation {
  /*    width: auto;*/
  /*    margin: 0 auto;*/
  text-align: center;
}

My question is: how do I align the navigation bar centrally above the title?
