a pair of members, each of said members being coupled to and extending upwardly from said to side of said beanie bag, each of said members having a series of bends to define a first portion extending upwardly from said to side of said beanie bag and a second portion being perpendicularly oriented with said first portion and a third portion being perpendicularly oriented with said second portion such that said third portion is oriented parallel to said first portion.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said plurality of bags includes a hat bag, said engagement element associated with said hat bag comprising an annular ring having an outermost surface being attached to an upper side of said hat bag such that said annular ring extends away from said upper side of said hat bag, said annular ring being comprised of an elastomeric material wherein said annular ring is configured to be extended around a button located on a baseball cap.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein:
said pair of members is spaced apart from each other;
each of said pair of members is displaced from said pin such that a free end of said pin is positionable between said first portion and said third portion of each of said members for retaining said pin to extend along a line being oriented substantially parallel to said top side of said beanie bag wherein said pair of members is configured to retain said pin in the beanie.
4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein:
said band has an outwardly facing surface and an inwardly facing surface; and
said first disk associated with said band being positioned between said inwardly facing surface and said outwardly facing surface of said band.
5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said coupler comprises:
a panel having a lower surface and a forward surface, said panel having indicia being applied to said forward surface comprising an image or a logo;
a second disk having a back side and a front side, said back side being bonded to said lower surface of said panel such that said second disk defines said coupling element of said coupler, said second disk being comprised of a magnetic material; and
said second disk magnetically engages said first disk of a respective one of said hat bag, said beanie bag, and said band wherein said second disk is configured to compress the hood between said second disk and said first disk associated with said respective hat bag or beanie bag or band thereby attaching the hood to the baseball cap or the beanie or the headband.
6. A hooded sweatshirt securing device for securing a hood of a hooded sweatshirt to an article of headwear for retaining the hood in a preferred orientation on a user's head, said device comprising:
a plurality of bags, each of said plurality of bags having a unique engagement element with respect to each other wherein said engagement element associated with each of said plurality of bags is configured to releasably engage a respective type of article of head wear being worn on a user's head, said plurality of bags including a hat bag and a beanie bag, said engagement element associated with said hat bag comprising an annular ring having an outermost surface being attached to an upper side of said hat bag such that said annular ring extends away from said upper side of said hat bag, said annular ring being comprised of an elastomeric material wherein said annular ring is configured to be extended around a button located on a baseball cap, said engagement element associated with said beanie bag comprising:
a pin having a coupled end being coupled to a top side of said beanie bag such that said pin is oriented to extend along said top side wherein said pin is configured to be inserted through a beanie for attaching said beanie bag to the beanie; and
a pair of members, each of said members being coupled to and extending upwardly from said top side of said beanie bag, each of said members having a series of bends to define a first portion extending upwardly from said top side of said beanie bag and a second portion being perpendicularly oriented with said first portion and a third portion being perpendicularly oriented with said second portion such that said third portion is oriented parallel to said first portion, said pair of members being spaced apart from each other, each of said pair of members being displaced from said pin such that a free end of said pin is positionable between said first portion and said third portion of each of said members for retaining said pin to extend along a line being oriented substantially parallel to said top side of said beanie bag wherein said pair of members is configured to retain said pin in the beanie;
a band being continuous such that said band defines a closed loop wherein said band is configured to be positioned around a headband being worn on the user's head, said band having an outwardly facing surface and an inwardly facing surface;
