Need help with background and button colours [closed]

Question

Using magento 1.9. My own version of the RWD theme.

If you notice there is still a white bar at the left and right after changing the background colour of my main container and my footer.

Any idea what I should be looking for in my CSS to also change the white bars at the sides to a different color? Also I would love to know how to do the same at the top right with my account and cart buttons, and search bar. Thanks

RWD background added to .wrapper class so you need to change it in here :

/* ============================================ *
 * Global
 * ============================================ */
html,
body {
  height: 100%;
}

.wrapper {
  min-width: 320px;
  min-height: 100%;
  margin: 0 auto;
  background: #FFFFFF;
}

.wrapper:after {
  content: '';
  display: table;
  clear: both;
}

The header links are :

/* -------------------------------------------- *
 * Skip - Link
 */
.skip-link {
  position: relative;
  float: left;
  width: 20%;
  height: 44px;
  background: #FFFFFF;
  color: #636363;
  line-height: 42px;
  text-align: center;
}

And the search add background to #search or if you want to change the background for all inputs add it to .input-text

Anther advice if you are on Chrome you can hover on the element you want to change, right click and select inspect element. I use firebug on firefox.
