I like to do word associations.

Aplomb means self-confidence or assurance even under pressure.

Aplomb sounds like a plume, and a plume is a large feather, often worn in hats.

You'd have to be pretty self-confident to wear a hat with a big old feather in it in a high pressure situation.

Hope that helps.
