What style/kind of rug will look best in my living room?
Can you answer *mimi*'s question about rugs?:
I have a beige (suede-looking) microfiber sofa and square leather ottoman as a coffee table. That kind of rug will go well with a new contemporary style home. Would a rug with a beige background look bad? And, where can I find affordable rugs?

You can get some excellent buys on area rugs at Overstock.com
I would be inclined to go with a patterned rug with browns, rust, gold and/or green in it.
I got a great shag rug at Wal-Mart for about $70 and use it in my family room over wood flooring. It's a soft beige color and adds texture and coziness to the room. Go with a shaggy look and choose any color you like…red? sage? If you do go neutral you can always add splashes of color in other ways that are cheaper and easier to change out.
A beige oriental rug might just suit your purpose.
Or you can go for leather rugs ( if you don't mind the idea of leather) which look ultra cool and contemporary.
I came across this site which sells rugs online. They are based in India and prices are cheap, they also allow you to bargain online.
