Yes, you are wrong. You don't get to control what your GF wears.
She has already been reprimanded for her attire. When she loses her job for dressing like she's going to the beach instead of working in an office, maybe she'll learn. But THAT is the reason why she should dress more professionally, not because YOU are trying to cover her body up like it is some kind of possession of yours. That's Taliban some crap right there.
Oh, and welcome, new member.
Thanks for the welcome!
We are no-where near using the word "Taliban" in regards to this here inquiry of mine. Very casual relationship actually. It's just a matter of respect as a girl in a relationship. We can focus on the shoes, but my point is overall attire.

Which is it, OP: a very casual relationship, or some kind of pre-engagement? It can't be both. If it were a very casual relationship, you wouldn't be telling her how to dress. Personally, I don't believe this relationship is going to work out long-term.
As her future husband, why would I want her to get fired?
I understand you don't want her to get fired (that's a valid concern), but you're also acting like men won't be able to control themselves when they see her feet, and I don't think you really have much to worry about in that regard.
It's not your issue, if she gets in trouble she'll modify her own behavior. I find it controlling for you to be on her about it, if you act like her dad rather than her bf, don't expect her to remain attracted to you for long.
ocnjgirl,
Thank you for the advice. If she doesn't modify her behavior, and does get in trouble, then I think it is my business considering she is my future wife. She's already talking about joint bank accounts.
Would she be wrong to complain you convinced her to send you a picture of her feet which you then publicized on an open forum? Did she know this is what you intended with the picture? If she were a CD poster and stumbled up this picture how would she react?
No, I'm not complaining. I'm asking whether those "well pedicured feet" are appropriate for a professional office environment. Are they?
OP, she needs feet in order to stand and walk. And you said yourself, you like the pedicure. Is it the feet you're asking about (she's allowed to have feet, and to paint her nails, right?), or is it the footwear you're concerned about? She will still have "well pedicured feet" if she wears shoes. So what are you asking?
