Morphology

rosy-colored = rosy + colored (transparent) = rosy + color + ed

A straightforward compound of 'rosy' + 'colored' whose meaning is directly derived from its parts.

Etymology

Rosy-colored comes from the flower rose, whose petals are often 'pink', and from colored, meaning 'having a color'. So something rosy-colored has the soft pink or warm look of a rose, which is why we use it for clothes, light, or the sky.
