The 48-year-old greeted fans in the city as she emerged from the Royal Monceau hotel rocking a chic mini-skirt and a collared shirt.
She waved to her loyal followers with a friendly expression as she made her way to a car waiting outside the entrance.
Teaming the outfit with a long dark coat draped over her shoulders, Celine carried a leather tote bag and wore her caramel tresses in natural waves.
The songstress is in Europe for performances in Belgium and France, bravely facing life back on the road after her recent family tragedy.

Determined to keep on going, René's widow will kick off her mini tour next week in support of her upcoming French-language studio album, due for release later this year.
On Monday, the My Heart Will Go On singer is heading to Antwerp to play a gig before returning to Paris, and is then jetting off to her native Canada where a final performance is scheduled in Trois-Rivières.
Previously, Céline broke down during the 2016 Billboard Awards and said that she wanted to prove to her children - René Charles, 15, and five-year-old twins Nelson and Eddy - that their mother is strong.
Overcome by emotion after the crowd gave her a standing ovation, the superstar apologised for letting her emotions run wild.

"I'm so sorry. I'm sorry for crying. I want to be strong for my family and kids," she said.
Furthermore, in a recent interview with People magazine, she divulged: "I miss him a lot from when he was great but not when he was suffering. I cannot be selfish. You have to let people go. I feel at peace.
"We were living in hope, knowing that there's no hope. I'm not the type of person who's going to say, 'I know he's going to make it'."
