A majority of your time is spent at work. And just like you keep a tool kit and first-aid supplies at home, you need some life-saving goodies on hand there, too. That's why we've come up with the modern girl's go-pack.

Here, nine things worth stashing in your desk -- eight of which fit easily inside a makeup bag -- that can come to your rescue any time you experience an unexpected meeting, wardrobe malfunction, date or morning after. Store now, look foxy all the time, and thank us later.

Emergency hair stuff Hey, tragedies like oversleeping and humidity do happen. Keep a lil' portion of dry shampoo if your locks get greasy or shine serum if you tend to frizz.

Sewing kit Using a paperclip to fasten your shirt when a button pops off mid-day? Not so classy. Instead, keep a hotel-toiletry-style sewing kit on hand.

Extra undies You can keep a neutral-tone thong in an envelope and never go without when you need one the most.

A cell phone charger When major drama goes down or plans change last-minute, you've got to be able to text your friends. Keep a spare charger around. (You can get a hand-cranked or short-term one.)

White button-down Suddenly summoned to a meeting with higher-ups and you're in a summery cami? Missed your mouth at the lunchtime burrito buffet? Suspiciously arriving at work in what you had on yesterday? Not even an issue when you've got a pressed button down stashed under your desk somewhere.

Colgate Wisps Forget trying to mask your breath with a mint -- these disposable little gems come with their own toothpaste-like stuff to actually clean your mouth.

Detergent pens or wipes Coffee spills are inevitable; wearing them is not.

Earplugs Whip these out on days you've got a killer migraine or when your cube-mate forgets to use her indoor voice.

Deodorant Bring in one of the four almost-done sticks cluttering up your bathroom; you'll have it on hand when you get called in to a big meeting or out for a big night.
