Unhappy mustang is smoking !!!

OK so on my lunch break tonight I noticed some white/blue smoke... I was sitting at idle with the car in gear. I haven't really noticed it before but I have only driven the car 6 or 7 times since I got it out of the garage where It sat all winter and was not started. I am hoping it is just valve seals.... but knowing my luck It will need a set of rings.

Ok so I started it up after sitting for about 2 hrs and no smoke until it warms up a bit. It does puff a little bit if you rev it to about 3500rpm and let off. It doesn't smoke while the rpms are raising just on decel of the motor. Any suggestions?

It may clear up with regular driving now that winter has come to an end.

Probly just from sitting all winter some of the valve seals leaking a bit .

Drive it and put some miles on it the see if it still does it after a few tanks of gas.
