Girls like compliments as much as guys.
You should start with something like, 'that's a nice top.' and everything leads From there.
Don't be nervous, just be yourselF...
Good Luck

Have fun and good luck!!!

 Talk to her! Even if you just say 'hi', at least you've broken the initial barrier.
Asking questions is a good move - generally, people love to talk about themselves. So perhaps asking her if she worked there or if she was looking for a particular book would have been a good opener.
It can be pretty hard to start talking to strangers out of the blue, but confidence (not arrogance though!) is appealing, so just suck up all those nerves and go for it.
Good luck!
