Okay I was reading over at this site and it says:

Finally, there is blue smoke. This is oil. It's probably the valve seals and/or guides which need to be replaced. The seals/guides leak oil into the combustion chamber while the car sits. Next time you start it up, the oil burns off resulting in smoke with a definite blue tint/color. Fixing the problem can be pretty expensive. Although if it's the valve seals, many mechanics have a tool that blows air into the combustion chamber via the spark plug hole which allows the valve seals to be removed without removing the entire head. But it's still expensive. If the car isn't burning a large amount of oil, then it's probably not worth fixing.
