Adding a category to UIColor the following way will make it available to you anytime you need it or even change its definition accross your code:

@interface UIColor (iOS7Colors)

+ (instancetype)iOS7blueColor;

@end

@implementation UIColor (SpecialColors)

+ (instancetype)iOS7blueColor;
{
    return [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0f green:0.22f blue:122.0/255.0 alpha:1.0f];
}

Once you import the Category in your code you can call the color by using:

UIColor *myBlueColor = [UIColor iOSblueColor];
