Morphology
The meaning 'the distinctive manner of expressing ideas in writing' is directly and compositionally derived from 'writing' (written language) + 'style' (manner or way), so a learner who knows both words can readily infer the phrase. This head–modifier compound is a common, cross-linguistic pattern and follows standard English noun–noun/nominal phrase composition, making it immediately comprehensible at B1.
Etymology
Writing style comes from a simple image: writing is the words a person puts on the page and style is their personal 'look' or 'way'. So writing style means someone's own way of expressing ideas in writing.
