1. A closure, comprising: a skirt configured to engage a container, the skirt comprising a rim with a locking element for engaging a top, a first hinge and an indented portion that is at an opposite end of the skirt relative to the first hinge wherein the top is an uninterrupted geometric shape;the top connected to the skirt at the first hinge, the first hinge being positioned at a second end of the skirt opposite a first end, the top being movable relative to the skirt wherein the top further comprises an extended lip that overhangs the indented portion;a lid operatively attached to the top at a second hinge, the lid being movable relative to the top,a distal end of the lid positioned at the second end of the skirt; andthe second hinge positioned between the first hinge and an end of the top opposite the first, the top and the lid forming an essentially flat surface. 2. The closure of claim 1, wherein the top is movable in a first direction and the lid is movable in a second direction. 3. The closure of claim 1, wherein the closure is fully open in response to the top being raised. 4. The closure of claim 1, wherein the closure is partially open in response to the lid being raised and the top being closed. 5. The closure of claim 1, wherein a width of the indented portion matches a width of the lid. 6. The closure of claim 1, wherein the first hinge and the second hinge are living hinges. 7. The closure of claim 1, wherein the locking elements are locking beads. 8. The closure of claim 1, wherein the top comprises a rim with a locking bead that engages the skirt. 9. The closure of claim 1, wherein the lid comprises a locking element on an edge of the lid that operatively engages with another locking element on an internal edge of the top. 10. The closure of claim 1, wherein the top has a rounded radial edge. 11. The closure of claim 1, wherein the top has a chamfered radial edge. 12. A container assembly, comprising: a container;a closure comprising: a skirt that operatively engages the container, the skirt comprising a rim with a locking element for engaging a top, a first hinge and a thumbtab that is on an opposite end of the skirt from the first hinge;a first flap connected to the skirt at the first hinge, the first flap having an extended lip that overhangs the thumbtab, an uninterrupted geometric shape, a distal end opposite the connection to the first hinge and being movable relative to the skirt;a second flap operatively attached to the first flap at a second hinge, the second flap being movable relative to the first flap, and having a distal end positioned opposite the attachment of the second flap to the second hinge, wherein the second hinge is positioned between the first hinge and an end of the top opposite the first hinge, the top and the flap forming an essentially flat surface. 13. The container assembly of claim 12, wherein the closure is fully open in response to the first flap being raised. 14. The container assembly of claim 12, wherein the closure is partially open in response to the second flap being raised.
