Morphology

shiningly = shining + shining (semi-transparent) = shine + ing + ly

Forming an adverb by adding the productive suffix '-ly' to the adjective 'shining' is a regular, transparent morphological process, but the figurative sense makes it only partially deducible.

Etymology

Shiningly comes from the simple verb shine, which means 'to give light'. A helpful way to remember the meaning 'very successful' is to imagine someone who 'shines' on stage and stands out like a bright light, so doing something 'shiningly' means doing it 'brilliantly' or 'very well'.
