I reckon the diameter measurement is more flexible as there's more rubber involved. If you've ever inflated an inner tube lots to find a tiny puncture, then you'll see just how much bigger than 700c an inner tube can grow.
The main issues are if you use a smaller tube then you may get more punctures and if you use a larger tube it may be a bit harder to fit in the tyre and will be slightly heavier.
These are for 1.5 inch tyres which is about 38mm so should do the job:

They're also far, far cheaper that Tubolito ones!
