Living Room Style vs. Steal

Decorating a living room, or an entire apartment for that matter, is expensive.  I think it's a good idea to swap items out for their cheaper alternative if and when possible.  You can always upgrade later!!  Below are a few items I love along with their budget friendly twins.  But first, a bit of inspiration...
