That's the first thing that came to my mind. They have tabletop versions, too, so you can stick it in your close if you don't want people to see it.

If you can keep a small fridge in there, packets of blue ice are very effective in keeping you cool. Just lay one on your skin, especially the skin of your wrists, elbow, or neck. They'll cool you off for hours and won't make much of a mess. I use the hard-sided ones regularly. The other day I used one that was about a foot square. Laid it on my chest and went to sleep. It helped a LOT.
