Singer Adele has declared her visit to Buckingham Palace to receive an MBE from the Prince of Wales a "very posh" affair.

And to mark her trip, the performer, whose albums have taken the world by storm, accessorised her fingernails - with tiny crowns.

Her immaculate nails were painted royal blue and the nails on the ring fingers of both hands featured tiny silver-coloured crowns decorated with red stones.

The singer said: "It was an honour to be recognised."
