Lena Dunham has a way of calling attention on herself. We love her unique ways and what we love more then her unique ways is her unique sense of style.

When she's not posing in Calvin Klein bra and panties, Lena takes pleasure in donning a gray sweatshirt with former model, Cindy Crawford, written across her chest. She paired her comfy sweater with blue sweats and a smile.

Lena's not the only one rockin' this Reformation sweater. We spotted Karlie Kloss sporting the black version while heading to school.

The writer and actress recently posted snap of herself in her boyfriend Jack Antonoff's Calvin Klein underwear, resulting in massive backlash from Twitter users.

One Twitter user, under the handle donnythemick, commented: '@lenadunham why would you post this pic on social media? nobody wants to see all that fat nasty blubber. have some respect for your body and show some self control at the dinner table for christ's sake. go on a diet ya fat pig!'

Speaking Re/code's Kara Swisher, Lena said of the experience: 'I thought it was funny, I had to wear my boyfriend's underwear because my dog literally ate all my underpants.

'It wasn't a graphic picture—I was wearing men's boxers, and it turned into the most rabid, disgusting debate about women's bodies, and my Instagram page was somehow the hub for misogynists for the afternoon.'

Lena went on to admit her concerns over being a role model for young girls: 'I had two feelings: a) I don't want to share my space like this, but b) The teenage girls who come to my page because they want to see what I'm reading or see a picture of my weird underwear eating dog or see what Jenny in my office looks like – I don't want them seeing a picture of me in my boyfriend's boxers and then be told I'm obese and anyone who looks like me is repulsive and I deserve to be dragged around and smacked.'

Repeat offender: Lena populates her social media with body-con snaps, which often elicits negative comments online

She then discussed her relationship to Twitter: 'I don't look at Twitter anymore. I tweet, but I do it through someone else. I don't even know my Twitter password, which may make me seem like I'm no longer a genuine community user.

'I really appreciate that anybody follows me at all, so I didn't want to cut off my relationship to it completely, but it truly wasn't a safe space for me.

'I think even if you think you can separate yourself from the kind of verbal violence that's being directed at you, that it creates some really kind of cancerous stuff inside you, even if you think, "Oh I can read like 10 mentions that say I should be stoned to death." That's verbal abuse. Those aren't words you'd accept in an interpersonal relationship. […] For me, personally, it was safer to stop.'

'I still man my own Instagram' she explained. 'It's a more positive community. It's really immediate. I take a picture, I post it, I move on.'
