Morphology
clussy + attitude
The modifier 'clussy' is not a recognized lexeme in the provided data (marked as not found), and it appears to be a nonce portmanteau rather than a transparent combination of known morphemes. Although 'attitude' is clear, the overall meaning depends on knowing the novel blend (classy+casual), which a B1 learner who only knows the listed constituents would not be able to predict, making this expression unpredictable and language-specific.
Etymology
Clussy attitude may come from mixing the words classy and casual. Think of someone wearing a smart suit with sneakers, an image that shows elegant and relaxed pieces joined together, so the phrase now means 'a style or manner that blends classiness with casualness'.
