Career women, aside from their work-related essentials, need to store fashion and beauty essentials at their desks for emergency occasions that call for instant suiting up. Below, we round up the essentials every working woman must always have in her cube.

1. A pair of flats
There will be instances when your feet will just hate you for wearing high heels. Having flats under your table will be a great relief for your tired feet.

Butterfly Twists Reese Foldable Flats, P2,399
Butterfly Twists is available at Rustan's branches.

2. An extra pair of heels
Did you come in the office wearing flats, thinking that you won't need to be in a meeting? Similar to having flat shoes, being ready with a pair of high heels in a classic design and neutral hue will be helpful especially when an impromptu appointment comes up.
