For a dynamic add to cart you'd need AJAX, but if you just want to show cart (with a widget included) you can add this:

<?php if( in_array('woocommerce/woocommerce.php', get_option('active_plugins')) ):?>
    <div id="shop_links" class="cart_right"><?php _e('Cart:','your_theme_slug') ?>
        <a class="link_cart" href="<?php echo esc_url($woocommerce->cart->get_cart_url()); ?>">
            <span>
            <?php
                echo '<span class="items_count">' . $woocommerce->cart->cart_contents_count . '</span> ' ._n('item', 'items',  $woocommerce->cart->cart_contents_count ,'your_theme_slug') . ' ' . '&mdash; ' . $woocommerce->cart->get_cart_total() ;
            ?>
            </span>
            <i class="icon-shopping-cart"></i>
        </a>
        <div class="cart_dropdown_widget">
            <?php the_widget('WC_Widget_Cart'); ?>
        </div>
    </div>
<?php endif; ?>

With some js for transitions:

var menu_cart = $('#shop_links'), subelement = menu_cart.find('.cart_dropdown_widget').css({display:'none', opacity: 0});

menu_cart.hover(
    function(){
        subelement.css({display:'block'}).stop().animate({opacity:1});
    },
    function(){
        subelement.stop().animate({opacity:0}, function(){
            subelement.css({display:'none'});
        });
    }
);

Styling is up to you.

Hope this helps
