Android KitKat : All my app content appears behind the ActionBar and StatusBar after changing StatusBar color

Viewed 4577

I've created a separate xml style file targeting KitKat and I've managed to change the color of the status bar. The only side-effect as seen on the picture, all the content is now moved up beneath the status bar. My question is how can I change the color of the status bar without overlaying this or how can I know the exact top margin I need to put on my content so its starts after the ActionBar and not beneath. Of course I need this to behave as expected on all screen sizes and densities. Thank you

Navigation drawer and all content appears beneath the ActionBar and Status Bar

<style name="ThemeSelector" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Light">
    <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/ActionBar</item>

        <item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
</style>
