There is no way to style a placeholder with two different colors. As an alternative, you could style both <label> and <input> to look like a single <input> (or any other tag like a <span>).

label, input {
    background-color: #4679BD;
    border: 1px solid #567890;
    float: left;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    font-size: 14px;
    line-height: 1.4;
    padding: 2px 5px;
}

label {
    border-radius: 2px 0 0 2px;
    border-right: 0;
    color: rgba(255,255,255,0.3);
    padding-right: 0;
}

input {
    border-radius: 0 2px 2px 0;
    border-left: 0;
}

::-webkit-input-placeholder {
    color: rgba(255,255,255,1);
}

:-moz-placeholder {
    color: rgba(255,255,255,1);
}

::-moz-placeholder {
    color: rgba(255,255,255,1);
}

:-ms-input-placeholder {  
    color: rgba(255,255,255,1);
}
<div>
    <label for="hashtag">http://blabbr.im/</label>
    <input id="hashtag" type="text" placeholder="#itsmynewawesomechat"/>
</div>

to change placeholder style you can use:

    ::-webkit-input-placeholder {
   color: red;
}

:-moz-placeholder { /* Firefox 18- */
   color: red;  
}

::-moz-placeholder {  /* Firefox 19+ */
   color: red;  
}

:-ms-input-placeholder {  
   color: red;  
}

you can use the id or nth-child() to target your second input
