It’s been crazy to see the vintage and antiquing craze explode across HGTV and the internet in the last few years. Some folks attribute the uptick in old-school glamour due to a deluge of historical television shows (anyone else obsessed with reruns of “Mad Men”?) whereas others nod their head to distressed farmhouse diva Joanna Gaines for her Texas-bred inspiration. No matter where you’re getting your inspiration, antique shops are experiencing an upheaval of interest, and Knoxville’s Retrospect Vintage Store is just the place to indulge your inner antique lover.
