We're approaching the time of year when we feel ready for a vacation. Brisk winds [1], excessive darkness, and holiday stress have us yearning for sunnier climates.

This gradually turns into fiery shades of pink, orange, and yellow — just like the hues in a tropical sunset. The look is both edgy and romantic at the same time. Read on to see some of our favorite examples of the sunset color trend.
