'Using one list with boolean to filter another list

I have 2 lists:

>logical.list  
$mask1  
[1] TRUE FALSE TRUE  
$mask2  
[1] FALSE TRUE FALSE

>work.list  
$vector1  
[1] "a" "b" "c"  
$vector2  
[1] "d" "e" "f"

I want to use the first one (logical.list) as a mask to extract the next output from work.list:

>output.list  
$vector1  
[1] "a" "c"  
$vector2  
[1] "e"

Is there an elegant decision avoiding loops, lapply, etc.?
