Morphology

breeziness = breezy (semi-transparent) = breeze + y + ness

The noun is a regular nominalization of 'breezy', but the sense 'lively, cheerful' is a metaphorical extension from the literal sense and may not be fully predictable for all learners.

Etymology

Breeziness comes from breeze, 'a light wind', and the adjective breezy meaning 'light and cheerful'. Think of a gentle wind that makes things feel easy and fresh, and that image explains why breeziness can mean a lively, relaxed manner or style.
