White is often coolant, you may have a leaky headgasket. If that's not it, it may be oil smoke and you may have damaged valve stem seals.
coolant is often a darker color either a gunmetal/black mixed with green and you could smell it too. white smoke is oil which usually doesnt have a strong scent, you may have to put new piston rings in or as he said valve stem seals

and btw, arent there certain ways to distinguish wether its a certain part of the motor when the smoke occurs? For example, typically, when the car steadily burns oil and even more during load, its the piston rings...
as to when the car only kicks out some blue smoke during the startup then more than likely its the valve seals?

White is coolant, normally due to faulty headgasket or the head not properly seating on the block.
