you can refer to this link http://innovativesingapore.com/2010/08/experession_phone/ for creating style as follows 

 <phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
        <Style x:Key="MyStyle" TargetType="TextBlock">
            <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="White"/>            
        </Style>
    </phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>

And apply to the Text blocks as 

<TextBlock Height="49" Name="textblock" Margin="67,49,0,0" Text="WhiteForegroundText"  Style="{StaticResource MyStyle}" />

If you want it only affects the whole page, add a Foreground color to the page like this,

<phone:PhoneApplicationPage Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}" ...

Please note that if you apply any style to your TextBlocks on this page, this color (in this case PhoneAccentBrush) will be overwritten by the color defined in the TextBlock's style.

Define a Style (without a x:Key) for a TextBlock and it'll automatically affect all TextBlock in your application.
