This and other expressions relating to items of clothing to describe any given situation are in abundance in our everyday conversations. So, dear friends, an opportunity for your contribution, remember though - don’t get your knickers in a twist over it, just pull your socks up, roll up your sleeves and put the boot in.

Taxi’s here, I’ll get my coat and my cap, if it fits.

When you need courage, put your big boys pants on, and face it.

Put your knickers on and go and make me a cup of tea.

It is an expression I use worryingly often, when I get exasperated with someone, and have probably used variants in posts on NSC. I stole it from here.
