In summary: Not with a sleazy vibe. You should never be looking like you are trying to pick her up. Just act natural, like you are looking at something interesting. Most guys I know look back when they see a pretty girl. It's just a part of human nature. If you don't look back, you might as well just walk by. If you do look back, give her a smile and let her know you are interested. In summary, OP is worried about appearing lecherous, but in reality, he's just being natural. Guys look back at pretty girls all the time, and most girls enjoy being checked out. If you're confident and act natural, you'll be fine.
