Ok heres my little tale
We were joking around and also debating house work and he said to me I should get you a French maids outfit and make you do the house work and I said more like I get you one and you do the housework to which he went quiet and red faced.
So I went on ebay and amazon and found one on ebay so ordered it and forgot about it.
I'm in work he was working from home and text me a parcels come for you what is it I said open it its for you I expect the house spick and span when I get home and you'd better still be wearing it.
in my lunch time he sent me a pic of him fully made up and in the French maids outfit which I looked at text back he looked fab and had better tidy the house up then deleted the pic off my phone.
Anyway to cut the story short my mum text me to say she was going to pop round and I said ok i'll pick you up on the way home from work if you like come for dinner totally forgetting my French maid at home.
Talking to to my mum I open the porch and then the front door looked up and there he is resplendent in makeup fishnet stockings and high heels and French maid outfit sat on the stairs lol luckily for him my mum was shaking off her umbrella and hearing and seeing her he could have won the Olympic high jump as he high tailed it up the stairs into the bathroom lol close call and proves how absent minded I am forgetting all about the French maid at home.
We laughed about it later, the house was spotless and dinner was on.
Anyone else had any close calls?
I have a number proper maid working uniforms and I don't mind who sees me wearing them when I am working as I am a maid and dressed for the job.
I have looked at those "French Maid" outfits on varioius web sites but to me they are not suitable if yoiu want to be a housemaid or parlour maid for real. I buy mine from uniform suppliers. Yoiu need to adjust the sizes as the sizes in ladies garments are different from gentlemen's but that is not very difficult. I have bought a female cleaner's or maid's uniform from a shop and tried it on in the shop on more than one occasion. When one of our local uniform supply shop was closing down I bougth 4 dresses as they were going very cheap and now I have too many dresses. The shop staff don't care mostly they have seen it before and they just like to make a good sale
So do any admitters to having a French maids outfit? Must say fancy trying one for the hell of it, much like the ocktoberfest beer girl type outfit. Think it would be a giggle for a couple of photos or even little fun with the other half if I was lucky enough to get away with it 😂😉
I have been dressing and working as a maid from time to time for many years now. I was at first nervious about people seeing me dressed and working as a maid as I a male. But now I don't care if they see me when I working then taht is okay because I am dressed for the job

I've often thought as a delivery guy is at the front door with a parcel containing something i want right now if I've been dressed should I chance it ...
What is it 20 seconds tops either take the parcel close the door or take the parcel scribble on the signature hand held thing and do they pay any attention to you.
Maybe next time.... Probably not lol

It wasn't really a close call as I was found out!
I left a bag of my clothes at the bottom of the loft ladder to put away and forgot all about them. My wife came home and found them ...... the rest is history! So much for my MI5 training!
Once forgot about the boiler man coming round and had to make a mad dash upstairs to get changed. Apologised as I let him in saying I was otherwise engaged!

OMG Emma made me laugh I bet he was so looking forward to showing off how he looked and felt as a French maid and so cool you ordered the uniform.
We've got one too I've managed to get my wife to dress in it for one of our girls nights in.
I've tried it on myself once maybe I'll give it another go see if it motivates me to do some house work lol.
Close calls for me have been dressing at home with my Dad knocking the front door having to get downstairs to the bathroom past the living room window as Davina to get the makeup off to answer the door and he must have seen I'd had eye liner and mascara on.
Knew I was home I said I'd been sat on the lol for 20 mins.
Also once fully dressed again working from home upstairs and before our new front door my parents had a front door key and looking after our kids my mother popped in to pick their scooters up I shouted down instructions where scooters were luckily she didn't come up to see me.
Countless times the postman or delivery guy at the door once I got up on auto pilot to answer it fully dressed luckily the mirror in the passage stopped me. Can imagine a delivery guys face.
And at number 1 signing into a we ex conference on my new work lap top (which has a webcam) looking up and oops there's Davina on web cam on a national conference. Thumb over the cam then work out how to turn it off as colleagues say hello miss are you on the wrong conference call ... Oh she must have gone... Hello.. Then someone said she was a bit of alright. Lol

Omg Emma that's a very close call lol. Imagine what Ma would have said lol!!
Does your hubby look very different when dressed? I wonder if it happens again you can lie and just say you have an eccentric friend over haha.
Great story. :-D
And close calls? In the early days when I was more involved I'd say a neighborknocking on the door and the postie. But nothing quite as dramatic as yours!
And a night of red lippie and decent clothes would be nice. Just so busy in kid land right now I do miss all that. I need to hunt down a new babysitter as our current one is no longer available. I'm also a bit of a softie with my kids and hate leaving them even for dinner which is daft I know. I would like to remember how hot I can look all done up as dang I was hot lol. Now it's a mission just finding something clean under the pile of dirty kids clothes.
I'm living vicariously through you Emma. I remember heading off to work in a skirt and heels and feeling both pretty and powerful. Sigh. Then again, being a mom is pretty awesome too so we do these things in different life stages. I'll just make sure I'm the very hot, well dressed grandma on the retirement cruiseships haha. x
