Yes I understand now, it almost works:) thanks!

Except I need to change the navigation menu color and the color of the text. Now still black and white > http://www.partijvantegenwoordigleiden.nl

this is my code now:

#header {
    background: #393185;
}

#pre-header {
    background: #2B244B;
    box-shadow: 0 0 8px 1px #393185;
}

#pre-header-search .search {
    background: #2B244B;
}

#header .menu > li.menu-hover > a, #header .menu > li.current_page_item > a, #header .menu > li.current-menu-ancestor > a, #header .menu > li > a:hover {
    background: #2B244B;
}

#header .header-links > ul > li a {
    background: #FFED00;
}

THANKS!!
