car is smoking

my car startedsmoking real bad today, and it smells kinda bad. It's white smoke, and it comes out whenever I depress the gas pedal. Is this from oil? I can't remember if oil burns white or blue or something like that. thanks.

oil is blue, burning coolant is white, if your burning coolant there will be a sweet smell, although my car was burning oil before and it was kinda white with a blue tint, only did it when i floored it, was 2 broken oil rings
