A quick look on google maps shows all that you need. The Natural History Museum is just south of Imperial College,

Kensington Palace is in Kensington Gardens, which forms the western extension of Hyde Park. The walk is roughly between 1� and 1� miles. (To walk it, turn right when you leave the Natural History Museum, then right again onto Queens Gate. At the top of Queens Gate you'll come out opposite Kensington Gardens. Enter, and head off to your left).
You could save a bit of walking by taking the Tube, on the Circle Line, for just one stop (clockwise) to High Street Kensington. The just follow the signs, along Kensington Road (eastbound) towards Kensington Palace.
If you'd rather take a bus, turn right out of the NHM and then left onto Queensberry Place. At the end of Queensberry Place cross over to the far side of Harrington Road and catch a number 49 bus (which runs to the stop nearest to Kensington Palace).

Really quick to walk. Depending on where you come out of NHM either walk up Queensgate or Exhibition Road to Hyde Park (you'll be walking slightly uphill, can't miss the park), there are then signs.
Exhibition Road is the road with entrances to NHM, Science Museum and V&A, Queensgate is road that runs parallel to it the other side of the NHM.
Probably quicker walking than waiting for and getting the 49, unless you want to get the bus. (I used to go to IC and get the 49 daily). Either way, don't bother with tube, it will definitely take longer.
