Unhappy Saxo 1.1 smoky after idle

I have a 1997 Saxo 1.1 X and its a cracking little car, however, just the past few days, if left to idle for a min or two, the exhaust becomes very smoky and blue in colour, now i know blue = oil but why only after idle and not during use, hard or easy? Its got me head in bits and i need some help lol. Thanks in advanc3
