any good decorating tips/websites for first time apartment renters?

My sister, a long time friend and my are all planning to move into a 3 bedroom apartment together. We are all females in the 20-21 age range. I'm looking for websites/and or (online) stores in which we kind find trendy and contemporary styles for living and bedrooms. Any good ideas on affordable stores....I've been looking everywhere and haven't come across anything REALLY good yet. Our living room is going to be navy and a lime/earthy green and white. We are needing furniture for the room so it would be nice if the website sells decor and furniture. PLEASE, SOMETHING REALLY AFFORDABLE, nothing too luxurious and over priced...thanks!!!

Jonas Burgert was born on 1969 in Berlin. A fantastical cast of characters, both animal and human, keep watch over a glowing white orb; the prize of the Mondjäger (or "Moon Hunter") referred in the painting's title. The elaborately layered scene, with its dramatic lighting, exotic costumes and sweeping, stage-like staircase, is wonderfully theatrical. "To do something strange, like pick up a planet, it is first necessary to change one's mind and body to become a part of a ritual," says Burgert. "One needs spiritual copies of oneself in order to have a dialogue between one's inner characters."

Jonas Burgert is a painting about female power, and the polar instincts of intimacy and aggression. Six women are gathered together in a strange environment, their dress and choices of weapon each representative of a different moment in time from prehistory to the present. They sit, squat and stand calmly as if debating some sort of violent offensive, the cue for which will come from the central figure caught within the blue crosshairs. Strange creatures move between them, while behind, on a mazy backdrop of golden, latticed wallpaper, hangs a constellation of spherical forms; a conscious juxtaposition on the artist's part of "the meditative chaos of nature and the interrelated elements of human cultures".
