Change background of Metro TextBox at normal state

I have a C#/XAML Metro-style application with a TextBox. By default, the TextBox displays with a gray background. When I hover over it with my mouse, the background lightens. When I put my focus into the TextBox, it has a white background.

I want to create a XAML style that will cause the TextBox to always have a white background, regardless of the position of my mouse or where my focus is in the application - how can I do this?

Thanks!

Open project with Blend. Right click on textbox and "create template with copy" or somthing similar. Blend should generate a copy of the default template that you can edit. – Lukasz Madon
You can do the same thing in Visual Studio 11 design view too now. – Filip Skakun

You need to edit the control template.
