Rihanna is making every moment of her trip to Paris count!

The singer, 35, was spotted leaving the Élysée Palace with boyfriend A$AP Rocky after meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday.

The couple dressed conservatively for the meeting, wearing matching black leather coats. Rihanna wore head-to-toe Saint Laurent, donning a belted coat on top of a tank top, with a black knee-length pencil skirt and ankle-strap heels. The "L$D" rapper, 35, wore a white button-up shirt with a patterned tie underneath a brown sweater and black dress pants for his look. The outfit was topped off with a chain necklace and sunglasses.

Although the reason for their visit has not been revealed, Rihanna previously met with Macron in July 2017 to discuss the country's international education funding. The meeting occurred a month after she publicly reached out to him on X, formerly known as Twitter, about his support for the cause.

Rihanna attended the 2017 meeting in chic business attire, including an oversized navy coat, matching gray sweater, and straight-leg trousers.

Macron and Rihanna reunited in February 2018 to headline a conference in Dakar, Senegal, to raise money for education in developing countries.

The performer has often been an advocate for education. In September 2016, she became an ambassador for the Global Partnership for Education.

"I feel strongly that all children everywhere should be afforded the opportunity of a quality education. Therefore I'm proud to announce Clara Lionel Foundation's partnership with education advocacy leaders like the Global Partnership for Education and Global Citizen. Working together, I know we can amplify our efforts and ensure that millions of children gain access to education globally," she said in a press release statement.

Rihanna's latest meeting comes days after she attended the Dior Haute Couture show at Paris Fashion Week on Monday, wearing a black belted jacket with a form-fitting skirt and white heels. At the event, she bumped into Natalie Portman, with whom she shared a sweet interaction in a video shared by Bustle on Instagram.
