I'd go for 'regular' Legos. I'd also make sure to pick up this amazing little tool they sell - http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Brick-Separator-630 The brick separator. I can't tell you how amazingly happy I was when I found this little thing. Also, on the Lego website you can find a couple of girl sets called Bellvue - http://shop.lego.com/en-US/BELVILLE-ByTheme

ETA: So long as fine motor control is good, there's not a whole lot of reason not to go straight to legos... but, if she has trouble with very small pieces I'd do the Duplo sets.
