It could be as simple as needing a new PCV, or as serious as a considerable amount of blow-by from bad rings. Luckily, if the PCV solves it, it's only a few dollars. If not, you'll probably want to do a compression test to see how your numbers look.

Also while your there, you should replace the crankcase breather *little mesh circle thingy under the PCV valve*

Check your oil and make sure it doesn't look like chocolate milk. Water/coolant in the oil will smoke in the same manner.
