Ariel Winter does not put up with body-shamers who judge her outfit choices. Although she is often the target of online bullies, the "Modern Family" actress always seems to have the perfect response for haters.

In late August, the 19-year-old actress was criticized for wearing shorts to the grocery store twice in one week.

First, she was judged on August 31.

Then, she was targeted again on September 5.

But the star shut down her critics in the perfect way on Twitter on September 5, and gave an honest reason for why her shorts might appear to be small. 

"I literally do not try and show my a-- when I wear shorts...my a-- just eats them up and then I don't notice...awkward af," she wrote in a tweet.

This isn't the first time Winter has hit back at people who have judged her for wearing shorts. Despite the harsh and unfair criticism, Winter won't let trolls stop her from dressing and acting the way she wants to.

Tabloids and online bullies have previously commented on Winter's tendency to wear shorts, but she always shuts down their hateful comments.

In June, she responded to paparazzi who unexpectedly snapped pictures of her wearing shorts while running errands with her boyfriend.

"Take pics on red carpets where we sign up for that not when we're just trying to grocery shop for f---- sake," she said.

Then, she posted a "small rant" on Twitter in July. In the post, she shut down body-shamers who commented on her wearing shorts.

"Pretty annoyed about the focus on the fact that I wear shorts, and the commentary that I'm 'squeezing' into them or the idea that it's not okay for me to wear shorts," she wrote in a post she shared on Twitter. "It's SUMMER. Get over it. It's hot. I'm obviously going to wear minimal clothes."

INSIDER has contacted Winter's representative for comment.
