It's just with my family, on Thanksgiving, but my boyfriend is going to be there as well. I want to look sophisticated and dressy, but not over-the-top. (Don't suggest a dress, please!)

How about a really nice pair of slacks with cool shoes and a pretty sweater?

You have so many options, other than a dress. Go for rich colors (Burgandy, plum, jade, mahogany, etc.) and fabrics (velvet, charmeuse, satin, cashmere, etc.) with some gold accessories. You could wear some nice slacks with a dressier top and accessories. Here are some tops that I love:

If you pick a black or more neutral top, then go for colored pants.

You could also opt for a jacket, sweater or vest to add or replace part of the outfit...like

Make sure to get some sexy boots to top off the ensemble. There are a lot of different choices, depending on the outfit. Slouch boots are a hot item this season. Check out the Boot Shop:
