Look for the Golden W!

In case you've somehow missed it... Today is International Women’s Day.

The day we celebrate awesomeness of women.

And McDonalds ain't missing out on the fun! They've gone and totally changed their image for today only, flipping the famous 'M' to a ‘W’ for women.

The fast-food chain said the move is in honour of “the extraordinary accomplishments of women everywhere.”

“We have a long history of supporting women in the workplace,” Chief Diversity Officer Wendy Lewis told Business Insider.

She went on to note that 6 out of 10 managers of the burger giant’s US restaurants are women.

“From restaurant crew and management to our C-suite of senior leadership, women play invaluable roles at all levels, and together with our independent franchise owners, we’re committed to their success.”

Although the only physical  arches being flipped are in Lynwood, California, the brand’s digital channels, including Twitter and Instagram, will sport 'Golden W' all day today.

While 100-restaurants round teh globe will have specially-designed shirts and hats, with the celebratory ‘W’ logo.

We're lovin' it!
