We instantly locked eyes for like three seconds. She gave a friendly smile that seemed to say "I like what I see". I turned my gaze away, flustered. She departed but not without giving one last glance back at me. I was so nervous that I didn't start staring at her until she was walking away.I realized that I let a perfect oppurtunity to get to know someone slip away. How can I avoid doing this again? I've never hit on anyone I've just met. I usually flirt with girls I see everyday at school or work or my neighborhood. But how do I approach a girl that I meet in a location where I'm sure I'll never see her again? How can I make the most out of the oppurtunity? I usually talk to a girl for a few days before I start hitting on her but in this particular scenario, how do I get her attention and let her know I'm interested?

 SVC and EWO: It's clear that you don't know women as well as I do.....
Note my remark: "....Works every time....." I'm quite sure that - IF I HAD EVER USED THIS LINE - it would have worked.....
Otherwise, of course, I'm clueless,.... as you may have guessed!!!!

 honestly... it's not a big deal.. the problem is if she's as clueless as I was a that age she wont' get it... ROFL...
but Bond Girl has it down.
you smile..
say hi
how are you
make small talk
from there you can see if she maybe wants to get a cup of coffee and from there you go for the phone number.
AVOID Sage OLD guy's advice like the plague...

You can try what sageoldguy said but I'd be prepared to duck if I were you.

Here's what I would have done.....
Say to her, "Excuse me Miss (pause, to invite her to tell you her name).... I'm looking for a new brassiere for my Mother, who appears to be about the same size/endowment as you. Would you please try this one on and let me know if it is comfortable?"
Works every time.....

SOme of them say, you are very pretty, some commented on my purse, hair, some said something about weather. One in particular i remember just started telling me a story what happened to him today, and half an hour later i found myself having lunch with him.
But first you say hi and smile, thats at least you need to say that. Say something, and see how it goes.

 You don't, More of an ease your way in kind of situation. Basically what bondgirl said. You start a conversation rather then rushing into something your not even sure it happening.

 Say "hi" to her. I don't want to insult you, but this kind of thing is not that big of a mystery. Ask her if someone she knows is in the hospital. Tell her why you're there and who you're buying a present for. Girls like to be noticed and treated like a human being...just like guys. They like to feel like someone is interested in them...just like guys. So, say hello and make conversation...even if it is just "beautiful day outside, huh?".
