1. ''She bought a dress for herself.''
2. ''She bought a dress herself.''
Although first one's means like roughly, she bought a dress for her; the second one's means like , she bought a dress on her own, she went to the shop alone and bought the dress alone, but it is not clear the dress is for who.
Am I right?
Editing version:
May be the second one should have been like;
''She bought a dress by herself'' to give the meaning of 'on her own'.
