Elixir Lacquers Bad Kitty + Girly Bits Hippity Hop

Apparently, all I want to do is swatch my indie polish lately!
I decided to do a "jelly sandwich" with Elixir Lacquers Bad Kitty, Girly Bits Hippity Hop and OPI Don't Touch My Tutu  


Bad Kitty is described as a purple-teal duochrome.
All fingers are 4 coats of Bad Kitty over a base coat of Seche Rebuild and no top coat. 
I really love this color. It seems impossible to capture the whole beauty of it with my camera though.
Hippity Hop is described as a multi coloured pastel and holo glitter, and tiny purple glitter, in a translucent sparkling  purple base.
This is 2 coats over Bad Kitty and a thin coat of Seche Vite on top. 
I did have to search around a little for the glitter but, it was very easy to get out. I think it works perfect over Bad Kitty.
OPI Don't Touch My Tutu is a sheer white. It is the perfect option for doing things like "jelly sandwiches" 
This is 2 very thin coats of OPI Don't Touch My Tutu over the above concoction. I did not apply a top coat on top of this.
Overall, I really like how this turned out but I think it would be something better for spring since it reminds me a lot of easter.
Bad Kitty is unfortunately discontinued, but you can pick up it's "sister" Miss Kitty's Mee-yow (it is said to be slightly more opaque) from Elixir Lacquers here. You can also find Elixir Lacquers on Facebook here and find Nicole's, the creator of Elixir Lacquers, blog here.
Girly Bits can be purchased here. I was lucky enough to win my mini from Let Me See Ur Peacock in June. Girly Bits can also be found on Facebook here and you can also find Pam's, the creator of Girly Bits, blog here 
OPI Don't Touch My Tutu can be found at most major cosmetic retailers still and is from the Ballet Soft Shades collection. You can like OPI on Facebook here.
