The phrase "in the cold light of day" means to view or evaluate something in a more objective and realistic way, not influenced by emotions or excitement. It's commonly used when you need to look at a situation again after some time has passed, usually in a calm and rational state without any emotional attachment. For example, if someone is excited about purchasing a new car, but maybe not for a sound financial decision, in the cold light of day they may realise that they cannot afford to maintain the car with the regular maintenance expenses etc. So, this phrase means to look at something in a more practical and realistic manner without the influence of emotions.
