Utilise Visual Studio Theme in Add-In

Question

Is it possible to utilise the current Visual Studio theme within an Add-In? I'm using Visual Studio 2010 and want to use the dark and light blue colouring of the environment to colour certain controls within my addin.

Found a blog named Changing Visual Studio’s Color Palette which references the Visual Studio UX Guidelines document.
