You can use Jeff Wilcox's ThemeManager

Add it to your project (there is a NuGet package available) and call it from App() constructor.

public App()
{
    // Global handler for uncaught exceptions.
    UnhandledException += Application_UnhandledException;

    // Standard Silverlight initialization
    InitializeComponent();

    // Phone-specific initialization
    InitializePhoneApplication();

    ThemeManager.ToLightTheme();

    // Other code that might be here already...
}

You can find usage example on his website.
