Changing text colors in sidebar

[dreadfulpenny81]

I know this is a fairly common question, but I went through the tags and didn't find the answer I was looking for. I'm using a Plus Account and I'm using the Mixit Kaboom Brothers Graffiti layout (Pixmix). I want to change the color of all the links (except the links in the header) from gray to black. That includes the links under the entry for

Well, the problem is that in all the past entries, people either want to change different elements or are using different base themes. So without using Firebug or Web Developer extensions, it's hard to figure out exactly what to change. This will change sidebar and entry link colors:
.archive-widget ul.widget-list .item,
.widget a,
#alpha .asset-meta-list a { color: #000000;}

Use this line for sidebar heading colors:
.widget .widget-header, .widget .widget-header a { color: #xxxxxx;}

The first code worked perfect. Looks great!

The second code didn't work. I don't know why.

This is what I added to the CSS:
}
.archive-widget ul.widget-list .item,
.widget a,
#alpha .asset-meta-list a { color: #000000;}
}
.widget .widget-header, .widget .widget-header a { color: #336666;}
}

Here's the link where I found the index of Hex Codes for Colors. Maybe it's not working because it's from a different website and I don't know if there's different color codes for LiveJournal.

I tried to change the sidebar heading colors to black as a test and that doesn't work, either.
